[D] [Em] [G] [A] x2
I re-[D]member the day we had [G] nothin' to do
[A] We went down to the [D] City Zoo
[Bm] Just to kill an [Em] hour or two
[A] Out in the good sun-[D]shine
[D] But we had so much fun, we were [G] glad that we came
[A] We fed all the animals and [D] gave each a name
[Bm] An' didn't even mind when it [Em] started to rain
[A] We had a real good [D] time
[D] But now that it's over and [G] you're far away
[A] I miss you more with [D] each passing day
[Bm] And all my friends sympa-[Em]thise and say
[A] "You'll forget in [D] time,
Yes you will, [A] give yourself a little more [D] time"
But it's [G] already been well [A] over a year
And [D] just in case you're interested you [G] might like to hear
How [Em] everybody's doing [A] down at the City [D] Zoo
Without [D7] you
Well the [G] monkeys forgot ya and the [A] hippo forgot ya
And [D] so did the kanga-[G]roo
[D] But me and the elephant, [A] we still remember you [Bm] [G]
[D] Me and the elephant, [A] we'll never forget [D] you [A]
Well I [D] wrote to Ann Landers and [G] Dear Abby too
And [A] sought their advice as to [D] what I should do
And they [Bm] said everything that re-[Em]minds me of you
[A] Would all have to [D] go [A]
So I [D] burned all your pictures, ex-[G]cept two or three
The [A] one by my bed and [D] one on my TV
And the [Bm] one that I always [Em] carry with me
[A] Everywhere I [D] go [D7]
Now to-[G]day was so nice and since [A] I was in town
I [D] thought I'd take the opportuni-[G]ty to go down
And [Em] see how everyone is [A] down at the City [D] Zoo
And what's [D7] new
Well the [G] rhino forgot ya an' the [A] zebra forgot ya
The [D] polar bear and tiger [G] too [Gm]
But [D] me and the elephant, [A] we still remember [Bm] you [Gm]
[D] Me and the elephant, [A] we'll never forget [D] you [A] [D]
