[Eb] A long time [Fm] ago, when the earth was [Bb] green,
There was more kinds [Eb] of animals than you've ever seen.
They'd run around [Fm] free, while the earth was being [Eb] born,
And the loveliest of [Bb] all was the [Eb] unicorn.
And there was green [Fm] alligators and long-necked [Bb] geese,
Some humpty-back [Eb] camels and some chimpanzees,
Some cats and rats and [Fm] elephants, but sure as you're [Eb] born,
The loveliest of [Bb] all was the [Eb] unicorn.
Now God seen some [Fm] sinning, and it gave him pain,
[Bb] And he says, stand back, [Eb] I'm going to make it rain.
He says, hey, brother Noah, [Fm] I'll tell you what to do,
You build me a [Eb] floating zoo, and take some of them.
Green [Fm] alligators and long-necked [Bb] geese,
Some humpty-back [Eb] camels and some chimpanzees,
Some cats and rats and [Fm] elephants, but sure as you're [Eb] born,
Don't you [Bb] forget my [Eb] unicorn.
Well, Noah was there [Fm] to answer the call,
[Bb] He finished making the [Eb] ark just as the rain started to fall.
He marched in the [Fm] animals two by two,
And he called out as [Eb] they went through,
Hey, Lord, I've got your green [Fm] alligators and long-necked [Bb] geese,
Some humpty-back [Eb] camels and some chimpanzees,
Some cats and rats and [Fm] elephants, but Lord, I'm so [Eb] forlorn,
I just can't [Bb] see no [Eb] unicorn.
Old Noah looked [Fm] out through the driving [Bb] rain,
The unicorns were [Eb] hiding, they were playing silly games,
They were kicking and [Fm] splashing while the rain was [Eb] pouring,
Oh, them [Fm] silly [Eb] unicorns.
There was green [Fm] alligators and long-necked [Bb] geese,
Some humpty-back [Eb] camels and some chimpanzees,
Noah cried, close the [Fm] door, because the rain is pouring,
[Eb] And we just can't wait for no unicorns.
[C] [F] Well, the ark started moving, [Gm] and it drifted with the tides,
[C] And the unicorns looked up [F] from the rocks and they cried,
And the waters came down and [Gm] sort of floated them away.
[C] And sure, that's why you've never seen a unicorn to this very day.
But you'll [F] see green alligators [Gm] and long-necked geese,
[C] Some humpty-back camels and [F] some chimpanzees,
Some cats and rats and elephants, [Gm] for sure as you're born,
[F] You're never gonna see no unicorn.
There was more kinds [Eb] of animals than you've ever seen.
They'd run around [Fm] free, while the earth was being [Eb] born,
And the loveliest of [Bb] all was the [Eb] unicorn.
And there was green [Fm] alligators and long-necked [Bb] geese,
Some humpty-back [Eb] camels and some chimpanzees,
