---------------------------------.................
 In the middle  of the earth, in the land  of The Shire;
 Lives a brave  little Hobbit, whom we all  admire.
 With his long  wooden pipe, fuzzy,  woolly toes,
 He lives  in a Hobbit-hole and everybody  knows him;
 Bilbo! (Bilbo!) Bilbo  Baggins; he's only three  feet tall.
 Bilbo! (Bilbo!) Bilbo  Baggins; the bravest  little Hobbit of them all.
 Now, Hobbits  are peace-lovin' folks,  you know,
 They don't  like to hurry, and they take things  slow.
 They don't like to travel a-way  from home;
 They just want  to eat, and be left  alone.
 But one  day, Bilbo was asked  to go,
 On a big  adventure to the caves  below.
 To help some Dwarves get back  their gold,
 That was stolen  by a dragon in the days  of old.
 Bilbo! (Bilbo!) Bilbo  Baggins; he's only three  feet tall.
 Bilbo! (Bilbo!) Bilbo  Baggins; the bravest  little Hobbit of them all.
 Well, he fought  with the Goblins, he battled  a troll,
 He riddled  with Gollum; a magic ring  he stole.
 He was chased  by wolves, lost  in the forest,
 Es-caped  in a barrel, from the Elf-King's  Halls.
 Bilbo! (Bilbo!) Bilbo  Baggins; the bravest  little Hobbit of them all.
 Now he's back  in his hole, in the land  of The Shire;
 That brave  little Hobbit, whom we all  admire.
 Just a-sittin' on a treasure of silver  and gold;
 A-puffin'  on his pipe, in his Hobbit  Hole.
 Bilbo! (Bilbo!) Bilbo  Baggins; he's only three  feet tall.
 Bilbo! (Bilbo!) Bilbo  Baggins; the bravest  little Hobbit of them all.

[C]  [C#]  [C]  [B]  [C]  [C#]  [C]

In the [C]middle of the earth, in the [F]land of The Shire;
Lives a [G7]brave little Hobbit, whom we [C]all admire.
With his [C]long wooden pipe, [Ab]fuzzy, woolly toes,
He [G7]live[N.C.]s in a Hobbit-hole and e[C]ver[N.C.]ybody knows him;

[F] Bilbo! (Bilbo!) [Eb]Bilbo Baggins; he's [Ab]only [Bb]three feet [C]tall.
[F] Bilbo! (Bilbo!) [Eb]Bilbo Baggins; the [G7]bravest little Hobbit of them [C]all.

[C]  [C#]  [C]  [B]  [C]  [C#]  [C]

Now, [C]Hobbits are peace-lovin' [F]folks, you know,
They [G7]don't like to hurry, and they take [C]things slow.
They don't like to travel a-[Ab]way from home;
They just [G7]want to eat, and be [C]left alone.

But [C#]one day, Bilbo was [F#]asked to go,
On a [Ab7]big adventure to the [C#]caves below.
To help some Dwarves get [A]back their gold,
That was [Ab7]stolen by a dragon in the [C#]days of old.

[F#] Bilbo! (Bilbo!) [E]Bilbo Baggins; he's [A]only [B]three feet [C#]tall.
[F#] Bilbo! (Bilbo!) [E]Bilbo Baggins; the [Ab7]bravest little Hobbit of them [C#]all.

Well, he [C#]fought with the Goblins, he [D]battled a troll,
He [Eb]riddled with Gollum; a magic [E]ring he stole.
He was [F]chased by wolves, [F#]lost in the forest,
Es-[G]caped in a barrel, from the [Ab]Elf-King's Halls.

[F#] Bilbo! (Bilbo!) [E]Bilbo Baggins; the [Ab7]bravest little Hobbit of them [C#]all.

[C#]  [F#]  [Ab7]  [C#]  [C#]  [A]  [Ab7]  [C#]

Now he's [C#]back in his hole, in the [F#]land of The Shire;
That [Ab7]brave little Hobbit, whom we [C#]all admire.
Just a-sittin' on a treasure of [A]silver and gold;
A-[Ab7]puffi[N.C.]n' on his pipe, in his H[C#]obbi[N.C.]t Hole.

[F#] Bilbo! (Bilbo!) [E]Bilbo Baggins; he's [A]only [B]three feet [C#]tall.
[F#] Bilbo! (Bilbo!) [E]Bilbo Baggins; the [Ab7]bravest little Hobbit of them [C#]all.
