    well, if you'd like to learn your abc, 
                                                 D 
    then listen very carefully to me, 
                  G                                              C 
    you can sing them like a funny foreign song, 
             D                                       G 
    and very, very soon, you sing along. 

And you can sing your abc's like this, 
Here's the first state letters : 

                         G      D                    G 
1. ah bos cee dah,       ef fah gha hah, 
                                                 D 
    ah bos cee dah, ef fah gha hah, 
              G              C                      D                      G 
    a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, ah bos cee dah, ef fah gha hah. 

And the next state letters in the alphabet, you sing like this : 

                      G    D                      G 
2. ay jah kah lah,      meh nah ou pah, 
                                                D 
   ay jah kah lah, meh nah ou pah, 
            G               C                    D                         G 
    i j k l  - m n o p, ay jah kah lah, meh nah ou pah. 

                      G 
Well, that's sixteen letters of the alphabet, 
                                                                                      D             G 
And there's ten more, you know, but let's try those last ten, slow. 

               G                      D                      G 
3. queh ahr see tah, uh vee whu ix yah zee, 
                                                                D 
     queh ahr see tah uh vee whu ix yah zee, 
        G                              C             D                                                G 
    q r s t u v - w x y zee, queh ahr see tah, uh vee whu ix yah zee.

    ay jah kah lah, meh nah ou pah, 
              G                                               C 
    queh ahr see tah, uh vee whu ix yah zee - means :
