[D] I remember the day we [G] had nothing to do
[A] So we went down [D] to the city zoo
Just to kill [Em] an owl or two
[F#m] Out in the good [D] sunshine
we had so much fun, we were [G] glad that we came
[A] We fed all the [D] animals and gave each a name
[D] [Bm]
[D] I remember the day we [G] had nothing to do

[D] I remember the day we [G] had nothing to do
[A] So we went down [D] to the city zoo _
Just to kill [Em] an owl or two
[F#m] Out in the good [D] sunshine
_ But we had so much fun, we were [G] glad that we came
[A] We fed all the [D] animals and gave each a name
Didn't even mind when [E] it started to rain
[A] We had a real [D] good time _ _
_ _ _ But now that it's over [G] and you're far away
[A] I miss you more [D] with each passing day
All my friends [Em] sympathize and say
[A] _ You'll forget [D] in time, yes you will
[A] Give yourself a little [D] time
But [G] it's already been [A] well over a year
[D] And just in case you're interested [G] you might like to hear
[Em] How everybody's doing [A] down at the city [D] zoo Without you
Well [G] the monkeys forgot you, [A] and the hippo forgot you
[D] And so did the [Bm] kangaroo
_ _ [Gm] [D] But me and the elephant, [A] we still remember [Bm] you _ _
[G#m] _ _ [E] _ _ [D] Me and the elephant, [A] we'll never forget [D] _ you _
[G] _ _ _ [A] _ [D] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ [D] Well I wrote to antlanders and [G] dear andy too
And [A] sought their advice [D] as to what I should do
And they said everything [Em] that reminds me of you
[A] Would all [D] have to go
So I burned all your pictures [G] of seven to a three
[A] The one by my bed [D] and one on my TV
And the one that I [E] always carry [Em] with me
[A] _ _ Everywhere [D] I go
And [G] today with some knives and [A] some towers in town
[D] I thought I'd take the [G] opportunity to go down
[Em] And see how everyone [A] is down at the city [D] zoo
_ And what's new?
Well [G] the rhino forgot you, and [A] the zebra forgot you
[D] And the polar bear and tiger [Bm] too
But [D] me and the elephant, [A] we still remember [Bm] you
