 -6    8   8  -7  -6 
Rain-drops on ros-es 
-6   5    -6  -6 -7   -6
and whis-kers on kit-tens,
  -6    8   8  -7   -6  
bright cop-per ket-tles 
-6   5    -6  -6 -7   -6
and warm wool-en mit-tens,
  -6   8  -8  -6  -7  6
brown pap-er pack-ag-es
  6  -8  7     -5
tied up with strings,
  5   -5  6 -6  -7 7
these are a few of my 
-8  8  -8    -6 
fav-or-ite things.


  -6   8   8   -7  -6
Cream col-ored pon-ies 
-6    5   -6  -6  -7   -6
and crisp ap-ple streu-dels,
 -6    8    8    -7    -6
door-bells and sleigh bells 
-6     5   -6   -6   -7  -6
and schnit-zel with nood-les,
 -6    8    -8  -6   -7  
wild geese that fly with 
 6   6   -8  7     -5
the moon on their wings,
  5   -5  6 -6  -7 7
these are a few of my 
-8  8  -8    -6
fav-or-ite things.


 -6   8    8    -7   -6
Girls in white dress-es 
 -6   5   -6  -6 -7   -6
with blue sat-in sash-es,
 -6    8      8   -7  -6   
snow-flakes that stay on 
-6   5  -6  -6  -7   -6
my nose and eye-lash-es,
-6   8   -8   -6   -7
sil-ver white win-ters 
 6   6    -8 7     -5
that melt in-to springs,
  5   -5  6 -6  -7 7
these are a few of my 
-8  8  -8    -9
fav-or-ite things.


  8   8   8   -6 
When the dog bites,
 -8  -8  -8    6
when the bee stings,
  7   7   7    5  -6
when I'm feel-ing sad,
-6  -6  -7 -6 -7  -6
 I simp-ly re-mem-ber 
-7  7  -8  7    -8
my fav-or-ite things,
 7    8 -9  8     -9  8   7
and then I don't feel so bad.
