Kindergarten Wall

C G F F G C

[Verse 1]
C                        F       
When I was a little kid, not so 
    C
long ago
   F             C              
I had to learn a lot of stuff I 
Dm          G
didn’t even know
       C                           
How to dress myself, tie my shoes, 
F
how to jump a rope
       Am          F               
How to smile for a picture without 
Dm             G
looking like a dope
       F                C          
But of all the things I learned my 
F                C
favorite of them all
      F           C              
Was a little poem hanging on the 
Dm           G
Kindergarten wall:

[Chorus]
G7 C                  F         
Of all you learn here remember 
        C
this the best:
F               C         Dm    
Don’t hurt each other and clean 
        G
up your mess
C                     F
Take a nap every day, wash before 
you eat
     Am              F             
Hold hands.  Stick together.  Look 
Dm                   G
before you cross the street.
      F          C           F   
And remember the seed in the 
         C
little paper cup:
          C    G    F            
First the root goes down and then
     F     G     C
 the plant grows up!

[Chorus]
G7 C                  F         
Of all you learn here remember 
        C
this the best:

F               C         Dm    
Don’t hurt each other and clean 
        G
up your mess
C                     F
Take a nap every day, wash before 
you eat
     Am              F             
Hold hands.  Stick together.  Look 
Dm                   G
before you cross the street.
      F          C           F   
And remember the seed in the 
         C
little paper cup:
          C    G    F            
First the root goes down and then
     F     G     C
 the plant grows up!

[Verse 2]
            C         F          
Well it was 1st, 2nd, 3rd grade, 4th
C
 grade too
        F              C          
Where I had to learn a lot of 
       Dm       G
stuff that big kids do
   C                           F
To add, subtract and multiply, read 
and write and play
       Am                F        
How to sit in a little 
            G
uncomfortable desk for nearly half a
 day
       F                   C      
But of all the things they taught 
       F                 C
me, of all the great and small
         F                C       
Still my favorite was the poem on 
    Dm           G
the Kindergarten wall

[Chorus]
G7 C                  F         
Of all you learn here remember 
        C
this the best:
F               C         Dm    
Don’t hurt each other and clean 
        G
up your mess
C                     F
Take a nap every day, wash before 
you eat
     Am              F             
Hold hands.  Stick together.  Look 
Dm                   G
before you cross the street.
      F          C           F   
And remember the seed in the 
         C
little paper cup:
          C    G    F            
First the root goes down and then
     F     G     C
 the plant grows up!

[Verse 3]
    C                             
But lately I’ve been worried as I 
F               C
look around and see
   F            C                
An awful lot of grown-ups acting 
Dm             G
foolish as can be
  C                             
I know there’s lots of things to 
        F
know I haven’t mastered yet
         Am                
Still it seems there’s real 
   F                  Dm          
important stuff that grownups soon
     G
 forget
    F                C             
I’m sure we’d all be better off if 
F               C
we would just recall
     F           C              
That little poem hanging on the 
Dm           G
kindergarten wall.

[Chorus]
G7 C                  F         
Of all you learn here remember 
        C
this the best:
F               C         Dm    
Don’t hurt each other and clean 
        G
up your mess
C                     F
Take a nap every day, wash before 
you eat
     Am              F             
Hold hands.  Stick together.  Look 
Dm                   G
before you cross the street.
      F          C           F   
And remember the seed in the 
         C
little paper cup:
          C    G    F            
First the root goes down and then
     F     G     C
 the plant grows up!
