Frog Kissin Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Ray Stevens
[Verse 1]

        G                           Em                           C
Do you remember in the fairy tales, how the wicked witch's spell changed the handsome prince to a toad.
             D                                                  G              C           G
Through the power of a potion, she handed him the notion he was lower than the dirt in the road;
                B7
and though she left him green and warted, her evil plan was thwarted, 
             Em           C           G
when there chanced to happen by a young miss; 
       D                                                   G                C              G
who in spite of his complexion, offered her affection, and broke the wicked curse with her kiss.


[Chorus]

G                         D
Well if you've never been frog kissing,
                    G
then you don't know what you've been missing.
          A                    D                   G
There's a world of opportunity under each and every log.
                       D                                              C
If you've never been a charm breaker, if you've never been a handsome prince maker, 
     G                       C             D          G
just slow down, turn around, bend down and kiss you a frog.


[Verse 2]

G                     Em                          C
Once upon a time ago, I was down and feeling low, like a lonely frog in a pond.
D                                                           G         C             G
Life was just a joke, and I was very near a croaking, I was zapped by life's wicked wand.
             B7                                                        Em          C       G
Then in the depth of my depression, there came a true expression, of a love from a lady so sweet.
            D                                                   G                 C          G
She gave me warm fuzzy feelings, feelings that were healing,and knocked me off my little web feet.


[Chorus]

G                         D
Well if you've never been frog kissing, 
                    G
then you don't know what you've been missing. 
          A                    D                   G
There's a world of opportunity under each and every log.
                       D                                              C
If you've never been a charm breaker, if you've never been a handsome prince maker, 
     G                       C             D          G
just slow down, turn around, bend down and kiss you a frog.


[Verse 3]

G                                Em                            C
There's a happy ever after land, deep within the heart of man, where a prince or princess abides,
    D
but all we get are glimpses of the handsome prince or princess, 
               G            C           G
'cause they're covered by a green warty hide;
                   B7
And though they're full of life's potential, they're lacking one essential, 
   Em             C            G
to enable them to shine like a star;
              D
and that's to have some guy or misses, cover them with kisses, 
    G                       C              G
and love them while they're just like they are.


[Outro]

G                        D                                      C
And that's the secret of frog kissing, and you can do it too if you just listen.
     G                       C             D          G
Just slow down, turn around, bend down and kiss you a frog.
