In The Freezer Our Snowman

	  		

It's not terribly well known, but I love teaching it to classrooms of K-5 - They think it's hilarious. 
Great for the family, sweet melody, fun to sing, and good for Winter into Spring music lessons. 

I am not a guitarist, but use guitar in the classroom for lack of a piano.   
The Bm may be omitted if you can't play the chord change very well, like me! ;) 

In the middle of each verse, you can choose to hold D, or alternate between D & C.   
Play around with it and find out what works best for you! 



G 
There was snow on the ground  
             Bm     Am 
But it was a sunny day. 
   D  
We knew that our snowman  
                         
Was bound to melt away. 
G 
So we asked our Mom 
           C          Am 
And though it did not please her, 
C 
She said we could keep 
D 
Our snowman in the freezer. 



Chorus 
G 
He’s in the freezer,  
Am 
He’s our snowman. 
            D 
He’s in the freezer, 
                G 
Getting a frost tan. 
Em 
He’s in the freezer, 
                 Am 
Keeps as cold as he can. 
   D 
He doesn’t go to school, 

He just keeps cool, 
G 
In the freezer – 



G 
We feed him bits of frost 
    C       Bm  Am 
And lots of ice cubes. 
D 
We show him to our friends 

When we come home from school. 
G 
We watch him as he sits 
     C      Bm     Am 
Next to the frozen squash, 
     D 
‘Til Dad shuts the door and says, 
      G 
“It’s starting to defrost.  



Chorus 

G 
He’s in the freezer,  
Am 
He’s our snowman. 
            D 
He’s in the freezer, 
                G 
Getting a frost tan. 
Em 
He’s in the freezer, 
                 Am 
Keeps as cold as he can. 
   D 
He doesn’t go to school, 

He just keeps cool, 
G 
In the freezer – 



One night at suppertime 
   C        Bm     Am 
My Mom said it was sad 
D 
As she told us of the ice cream 

That we could have had. 

Our snowman was taking up  
C       Bm      Am 
All the room it seems, 
               D 
And she didn’t have a place 
               G 
To put our ice cream. 



Final Chorus 

G 
He’s on the sidewalk 
Am 
And he’s melting fast. 
           D 
You know a snowman 
                 G 
Was not meant to last. 
Em 
It won’t be long now 
            Am 
Before he melts away 
    G            D 
And we’re having ice cream  
         G 
For dessert today! 

It’s in the freezer! 

It’s in the freezer!
