Song lyrics and guitar chords/tabs to the original tongue twister song Five Fruit Flies Flew.

G                        C                    G
Five fruit flies flew through three fields
G                   D
Thirsty for free flower meals
G                          C             G
One fruit fly thought it’s too far
G                          D             G
And hopped a ride inside a car

Four fruit flies flew through three fields
Thirsty for free flower meals
Three flies fought over where to fly
One swished away to a Swiss fish fry

Three fruit flies flew through three fields
Thirsty for free flower meals
One fruit fly flew far too low
A fast frog flicked its tongue uh oh

Two fruit flies flew through three fields
Thirsty for free flower meals
One fruit fly flew far too high
‘til a sparrow swooped down from the sky

One fruit fly flew through three fields
Thirsty for free flower meals
It found a flower full of food
It slurped and slurped then burped how rude

That fruit fly flittered far away
But five more fruit flies flew that day
