'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Fm A#m
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe.
C# G#
All mimsey were the borogroves
Fm A#m
And the mome raths outgrabe.

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
D#m G#
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
A#m C#
Beware the Jubjubb bird, and shun
D#m G#
The frumious Bandersnatch!"

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Fm A#m
Long time the manxome foe he sought
C# G#
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
Fm A#m
And stood awhile in thought.
A#m C#
And as in uffish thought he stood,
D#m G#
The Jabberwock with eyes if flame
A#m C#
Came whiffling through the tulgeywood
D#m G#
And burbled as it came.
C# G#
One, two! One, two! And through and through
Fm A#m
The vorpal blade went sniker-snack!
C# G#
He left it dead, and with its head
Fm A#m
He went galumphing back.
A#m C#
"And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
D#m G#
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
A#m C#
O frabjous day! Callooy, callay!"
D#m G#
He chortled in his joy.
C# G#
'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Fm A#m
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe.
C# G#
All mimsey were the borogroves
Fm A#m
And the mome raths outgrabe.
