    C                F
The ice rinks on the river,
     A7                Dm
They glimmer, and they shimmer.
    C                  F
Grownups stay home and shiver,
        Em75-         A7
Hut the kids all run away.
     C                 F
They put on skates and go
   A7              Dm
To dance under the snow,
     B        C        F       Gm/C
Then they transform, as they perform
    A7           Dm Dm7/C Dm
The beautiful ballet.

    C                 F
The snowflakes in the air,
     A7                Dm
Like silver stars they glare.
   C            F
Go there if you dare,
       Em75-            A7
If you care to join the play.
    C             F
Tie laces on your new skates,
     A7              Dm
Then go on meet your playmates.
  B       C            F       Gm/C
Hefore you know, you’re good to go
    A7              Dm Dm7/C Dm
And skate the fancy way.

Let’s have the festive music
    H7              Em
And songs that are amusing

For all of us to dance and sing
    F#m75-         H7
And celebrate this day.
    D                 G
The kids have fun and feel great,

They smile and laugh as they skate.
     C      D        G        Am/D
They have a blast as they run fast
    H7            Em
And as they sway away.
