Song

ABOUT THE SONG: each verse is a semi-tone higher than the last so when
changing verses slide into it to enhance the sound of raising the pitch.
Example, when changing between the chorus and second verse make sure you
slide the F to F#.
Introduction Chorus:
Tra-la-la la-la-la-la
Tra-la-la la-la-la-la
(x2)
Verse 1:
One banana, two bananas, three bananas, four
Four bananas make a bunch and so do many more
Over hills and highway the banana buggies go
Coming on to bring you the banana splits show
CHORUS:
Tra-la-la la-la-la-la
Tra-la-la la-la-la-la
(x2)
Verse 2:
Four bananas, three bananas, two bananas, one
All bananas playing in the bright warm sun
Flipping like a pancake, popping like a cork
Fleagle, bingo, drupper and snork
CHORUS:
Tra-la-la la-la-la-la
F# C# F# (use a c shape chord here on the next
Tra-la-la la-la-la-la frets up because the change is quick.)
(x2)
BRIDGE:
Freakin' out and havin' f-un (the chords in the bridge i play
B C B as bar chords. E.G G-3rd fret,
Freakin' out and havin' f-un a-5th fret, B-7th fret, c-8th fret
D E D etc.)
Lots of fun for everyo-one
CHORUS:
Tra-la-la la-la-la-la
Tra-la-la la-la-la-la
(x2)
End the song any way you want (Even with an oh-o Jungo.)
Well good luck guys. It's a groovy piece.
