(This chant is used to find the first person to be "It" when beginning a game. All players put their fisted hands together in a circle and one person starts the chant by tapping each fist in succession. When "Y-O-U" is said, the person whose fist is tapped puts that fist behind their back. Then the chant starts again with the chanter starting with the fist of someone else. As soon as one person has both hands out of the circle they are "It". )
