The Unicorn Chords by The Irish Rovers

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