Tuning: Drop C (electric) - Open C (dobro)
INTRO
CI journeyed to the North, to hear what the preacher said
CHe said "your arms are too short to box with God,
Clearn these words instead".
CGold tooth reflected, my advice is free
Cthere's a trick to Christian values, it ends compulsively.
(Stay Ffrosty) that's what the preacher man said
(Stay Cfrosty) his words still racking in my head
AbCan't control your future, Gcan't control your friends
in a Abworld without Gend
C(Stay Frosty) ayyy yeah
C(Stay Frosty now) uh-all right
VERSE 1
CAnd I traveled to the South, the ancient Rabbi appeared to me
Cvoice heavy with the sands of time, he made me see.
CSame as Kabbalah Day but for you it's free
CGod guides us on our journey, but careful with those feet!
CHORUS 1
(Stay Ffrosty) In a world without end
(Stay Cfrosty) Like the ancient immortals said.
AbDon't want em to get your goat don't Gshow em where its hid
Aband that's just what I Gdid.C  
VERSE 2
CI journeyed to the East, and I struggled to stay afloat
Ca solitary Buddhist monk, threw me a rope.
CLooked me in the eye and said "don't make me say this twice"
C"you want to be a monk, you got to cook a lot of rice."
CHORUS 2
(Stay Ffrosty) in a world without end
(Stay Cfrosty) work hard at this my friends.
AbLook beyond that GKung Fu fighting
AbGod is love, but Gget it in writing.
GUITAR SOLO
VERSE 3 (breakdown)
CWandered out West, to the California coast
Cwhere the folks who know about frostiness, stay frostiest the most.
CMy brand new landlord proposed me a toast, 
Cmy West Coast host.
CHORUS 3
(Stay FFrosty) chant it like a mantra
C(Stay Frosty) and there's nothing you cant handle
AbFar and wide, fGar as you can ramble
Abtrust in Allah, but Gtie up your camel.
Stay CFrosty!!

Tuning: Drop C (electric) - Open C (dobro)

INTRO

I journeyed to the North, to hear what the preacher said

He said "your arms are too short to box with God,

learn these words instead".

Gold tooth reflected, my advice is free

there's a trick to Christian values, it ends compulsively.

(Stay frosty) that's what the preacher man said

(Stay frosty) his words still racking in my head

Ab G

Can't control your future, can't control your friends

Ab G

in a world without end

(Stay Frosty) ayyy yeah

(Stay Frosty now) uh-all right

VERSE 1

And I traveled to the South, the ancient Rabbi appeared to me

voice heavy with the sands of time, he made me see.

Same as Kabbalah Day but for you it's free

God guides us on our journey, but careful with those feet!

CHORUS 1

(Stay frosty) In a world without end

(Stay frosty) Like the ancient immortals said.

Ab G

Don't want em to get your goat don't show em where its hid

Ab G C

and that's just what I did.

VERSE 2

I journeyed to the East, and I struggled to stay afloat

a solitary Buddhist monk, threw me a rope.

Looked me in the eye and said "don't make me say this twice"

"you want to be a monk, you got to cook a lot of rice."

CHORUS 2

(Stay frosty) in a world without end

(Stay frosty) work hard at this my friends.

Ab G

Look beyond that Kung Fu fighting

Ab G

God is love, but get it in writing.

GUITAR SOLO

VERSE 3 (breakdown)

Wandered out West, to the California coast

where the folks who know about frostiness, stay frostiest the most.

My brand new landlord proposed me a toast,

my West Coast host.

CHORUS 3

(Stay Frosty) chant it like a mantra

(Stay Frosty) and there's nothing you cant handle

Ab G

Far and wide, far as you can ramble

Ab G

trust in Allah, but tie up your camel.

Stay Frosty!!
