VERSES 1
*********
GThere's a fox on the hill
and he's standing still,
as if he's trying to hide.
GMy horse is going after him,
he thinks he'll easily catch him
but the Tod is sly.
Chorus
*******
Bm Lazy Edays and crazy Gways,
the sun is Amhigh and I'Gm feelin' fine.
(and so is ol' Dart)
-------------------------------------------
VERSES 2
*********
GMy horse is unconcerned
as he takes a tricky turn
on the heels of the fox.
GBut as we come around,
Mr. Tod is off the ground
smiling down from the rocks.
Chorus
*******
Bm Crazy Edays and lazy Gways,
the sun is Amnigh and I'Gm feelin' high.
Am (it's only rock and Droll)

BmWell, I'm an artful dodger
said the Efox,
they never catch me, F#mno
I lead them all a merry Bmdance
I see you're on a pleasure run,
out to Ehave a bit of fun...
F#mperhaps you'd like a game of Bmchance
So Gmay I propose a F#mlittle game
...if Bmyou'll agree. F#m
I Gwager you'll never F#mcatch me!
Heavy Guitar = Bm
*************
BmAnd in a flash,
the fox flipped his tail,
my F#mhorse took the bit,
Bmand the chase was on...
