Well, heck. My machine claims the scanner disconnected. I'll just have to do it the old-fashioned way, right here. I am typing them in columns in hopes that they won't scoot around when posted.

I am used to singing with with a repeat at the front. First time ends high, second time ends low.

G- Kling, Glöckchen, kling-e-ling-e-ling!
D- Kling, Glöckchen,
G- kling!

There are a lot of 7th chords in this song. If you play the chords I have noted while singing the seventh note, you will get a delicate dissonance suitable for a children's song. The A7 chords in the middle add interest while not actually going into the minor.
