   D       A           D
I want to tell you a story '
         C      A   C     A
Bout' a little man, If I can
    D           A       D
a gnome named Grimble Gromble.
     C       A         C         A
And little gnomes stay in their homes,
G  D     A#  C      F  A7         D
Eating, sleeping, drinking their wine.

He wore a scarlet tunic
a blue green hood, it looked quite good
He had a big adventure
amidst the grass, fresh air at last
Wining, dining
Biding his time

Chorus:
      G         C/G
And then one day
    F  A/E
Hooray!
         E        G        D
Another way for gnomes to say
G        D
Ooooooh my

Look at the sky, look at the river
Isn’t it good?
Look at the sky, look at the river
Isn’t it good?
Winding, finding places to go

Chorus

 G            D
"Ooooooooooh my"
