Vox on the 5

ECome on, baby, C#mdo the locomotion

I Eknow you’ll get to like it if you C#mgive it a chance now

ECome on, baby, C#mdo the locomotion

Vox on 1 2 1 2 of the chord (4 6 4 6 of the key) on “little baby”

My Alittle baby sister can F#mdo it with ease

It’s Aeasier than learning your F#ABC’s

Vox on 6 5 on “come on”

So, Ecome on, come on, Bdo the locomotion with Eme

ENow that you can do it C#mlet’s make a chain now
