[Intro]
Am G F E x4

[Verse 1]
Am E
There once was a bat named Boris
Am E
He lived in the belfry instead of in the forest
F C E
And he used to hang around, upside down, high up in the church at the edge of
E E7 E E7 E E7 E
town

[Chorus 1]
F Am C E
Dingling, dangling upside down, he couldn't see too well but he heard the

slightest sound
Am G F C E
From the flutter of a moth to a splutter and a cough, high up in the church
Am
at the edge of town

[Refrain]
Am G F E x2

[Verse 2]
Am E
A belfry is where they keep the bells
Am E
Dark and dusty with lots of musty smells
F C E
It's a probable fact you wouldn't fancy that but it's just the job if you're
E E7 E E7 E E7 E
a bat

[Chorus 2]
F Am C E
Dingling, dangling upside down, he couldn't see too well but he heard the

slightest sound
Am G F C E
From the flutter of a moth to a splutter and a cough, high up in the belfry
Am
at the edge of town

[Refrain]
Am G F E x2

[Verse 3]
Am E
Bats in the belfry they should be in the forest
Am E
The vicar wasn't pleased to be quite honest
F C E
He said that the bats would have to go away, but he changed his mind the very
E E7 E E7 E E7 E
next day

[Chorus 3]
