[Dm]‘Twas brillig, and the [C]slithy [Dm]toves
Did [Bb]gyre and [A]gimble in [G]the [F]wabe
[Dm]All mimsey were the [C]boro- [Dm]groves
And the [Bb]mome raths out-[A]grabe
[Dm]“Beware the Jabberwock, [C]my [Dm]son!
The [Bb]jaws that [A]bite, [G]the [F]claws that catch!
[Dm]Beware the Jubjubb bird, [C]and [Dm]shun
The [Bb]frumious Bander-[A]snatch!”
[Dm]He took his vorpal sword [C]in [Dm]hand:
Long [Bb]time the [A]manxome [G]foe he [F]sought
[Dm]So rested he by the [C]Tumtum [Dm]tree,
And stood [Bb]awhile in [A]thought.
[Dm]And as in uffish thought [C]he [Dm]stood,
The [Bb]Jabberwock [A]with [G]eyes if [F]flame
[Dm]Came whiffling through [C]the [Dm]tulgeywood
And [Bb]burbled as it [A]came.
[Dm]One, two! One, two! And [C]through [Dm]and through
The [Bb]vorpal [A]blade went [G][F]sniker-snack!
[Dm]He left it dead, and [C]with its [Dm]head
He went [Bb]galumphing [A]back.
[Dm]“And hast thou slain the [C][Dm]Jabberwock?
Come [Bb]to my [A]arms, my [G]beamish [F]boy!
[Dm]O frabjous day! Callooy, [C][Dm]callay!”
He [Bb]chortled in his [A]joy.
[Dm]‘Twas brillig, and the [C]slithy [Dm]toves
Did [Bb]gyre and [A]gimble in [G]the [F]wabe
[Dm]All mimsey were the [C][Dm]borogroves
And the [Bb]mome raths out-[A]grabe
