Chords
pin

# Verse 1:
       C                          F
In the middle of the earth in the land of the shire,
        G                           C
lives a brave little hobbit whom we all admire.
       C               G
With a long wood pipe, fuzzy, wuzzy toes
G                          C
Lives in a hobbit hole and everybody knows him
 
# Chorus: 
F           D#
Bilbo Bilbo Bilbo Baggins.
G#   A#         C 
Only three feet tall.
F           D#
Bilbo Bilbo Bilbo Baggins.
G                             C
Bravest little hobbit of them all.

# Verse 2:
    C                        F
Now hobbits are peace-loving folks you know
     G                            C          
They don't like to hurry and they take things slow.
     C                    G
They don't like to travel far away from
G                            C
They just want to eat and be left alone.

# (Key change - up one half step. If you put a capo on the first fret at 
# this point, you can play it the same way as the first two verses and chorus)

# Verse 3 
    C#                F#
But one day Bilbo was asked to go
     G#                   C#
On a big adventure to the caves below,
   C#                    G#
To help some dwarves get back their gold,
G#                                 C#
That was stolen by a dragon in the days of old. 

# Chorus:
F#          E
Bilbo Bilbo Bilbo Baggins.
A    B          C#
Only three feet tall.
F#          E
Bilbo Bilbo Bilbo Baggins.
G#                            C#
Bravest little hobbit of them all.

# Bridge:
         C#                      D
Well he fought with the goblins, he battled a troll,
   D#                           E
He riddled with gollum, a magic ring he stole.
       F                 F#
He was chased by wolves, lost in a forest,
G                             G#
Escaped in a barrel, from the Elf-King's halls.

# Chorus
F#             E
Bilbo (Bilbo!) Bilbo Baggins.
G#                            C#
Bravest little hobbit of them all.

# Verse 4:
    C#                           F#
Now he's back in his hole in the land of the shire
     G#                   C#
That brave little hobbit, whom we all admire.
       C#                    G#
Just a-sitting on a treasure of silver and gold
G#                     C#
A-puffing on his pipe, in his hobbit hole

# Chorus 
F#          E
Bilbo Bilbo Bilbo Baggins.
A    B          C#
Only three feet tall.
F#          E
Bilbo Bilbo Bilbo Baggins.
G#                            C#
Bravest little hobbit of them all.
