Some fel-lers like to tip-toe through the tu-lips

 6    5    -4  4  4  7   -6b  6   5  -4
Some fel-lers go on sing-in' in the rain

 6    5   -4   4    4  -5b -5b    -7   -6   6   6
Some fel-lers keep on paint-in' skies with sun-shine

 -6   6   -5b 5   6  -6   -6   -6   -6  -6
Some fel-lers go on swing-in' down the lane

 6    5  -5b 5  -5b  6
But I'm bid-in' my time

  -4     5     5   -5b 5   -5b 6
'cause that's the kind of guy I'm

 6     7   7   7     7   7  -6b
While oth-er folks grow diz-zy

 7   -6b   6  -5b 5 -4  -4  4
I'll keep bus-y bid-in' my time

 5    5     5    5
Next year, next year

-5b   -5b     5   -4 -5b  5
Some-thin's bound to hap-pen

 6     6     6    6
This year, this year

 7     7   -6   -6b -6b 6
I'll just keep on nap-pin'

-5b  5  -5b -5b  5
And bid-in' my time

 -4      5    5   -5b  5  -5b 6
Cause that's the kind of guy I'm

6       7   7   7   -6b 
There's no re-gret-in'

Cause that's the kind of guy I'm

6   7   7   7 7  7  -6b
Be-gin-nin on a Mon-day

7       -6b    6  -5b  
Right through Sun-day

5   -4  -4   4
Bid-in' my time

 5   5     5   5
Give me, give me

-5b    -5b    5   -4  -5b  5
Glass that’s full of tink-le

6   6    6   6
Let me, let me

7      7    -6 -6b  -6b  6
Dream like Rip Van Wink-le

5  -5b -5b -5b  5
He Bid-ed his time

-4   5    5    -5b 5  -5b  6
And like that Wink-le guy I’m

 7    7  7   -6b   
Chas-in way flies

7    -6b  6   -6b  
How the day flies
