THE UNICORN

I did'nt like the other tabs so here is something different to try.

CAPO on 3

   D                      G
A long time ago when the earth was green
           A                          D              Dsus2 
There was more kinds of animals than you'd ever seen
        D                         G
They'd run around free while the world was being born
         D                            A  D
But the loveliest of them all was the unicorn

CHORUS:

           D                    G
There was green alligators and long necked geese
      A                             D          Dsus2
Some humpty backed camels and some chimpanzees
      D                                G
Some cats and rats and elephants, but sure as you're born
     D                       A  D
The loveliest of all was the unicorn.

INSTRUMENTAL:  DAD

     D                            G
Now god seen some sinning and it gave him a pain
        A                               D             Dsus2
And he says, stand back, "I'm going to make it rain!"
           D                      G     
He says, "Hey, brother Noah I'll tell you what to do,
 D          A        D
Build me a floating zoo,"
      Dsus2
"and take some of them...."
 D                    G
Green alligators and long necked geese,
      A                             D           Dsus2   
Some humpty backed camels and some chimpanzees.
      D                                G
Some cats and rats and elephants, but sure as you're born.
 D                  A  D
Don't you forget my unicorn."

INSTRUMENTAL:  DAD

     D                 G
Old Noah was there to answer the call,
    A                                      D                   Dsus2
He finished up making the ark just as the rain started pourin'
    D                      G
He marched in the animals two by two,
        D             A         A
And he called out as they went through,

"Hey lord,"

   D                             G    
I got your green alligators and long necked geese,
      A                             D           Dsus2 
Some humpty backed camels and some chimpanzees,
      D                                G
Some cats and rats and elephants, but lord, I'm so forlorn,
   D                A  D  
I just can't see no unicorn!"

INSTRUMENTAL:  DAD

      D                           G
Then Noah looked out through the driving rain,
      A                     D                   Dsus2
Them unicorns were hiding, playing silly games.
 D                               G
Kicking and splashing while the rain was pourin'
D              A  D
Oh, them silly unicorns!"

            D                    G  
There were green alligators and long necked geese,
      A                             D            Dsus2
Some humpty backed camels and some chimpanzees.
      D                                G 
Noah cried, "Close the door cause the rain's pourin'
    D                            A  D    
And we just can't wait for those unicorn!"

INSTRUMENTAL:  DAD

     D                      G
The ark started moving, it drifted with the tides,
      A                           D                    Dsus2
Them unicorns looked up from the rocks and they cried.
         D                            G
And the waters came down and sort of floated them away,

And that's why ya never seen a unicorn to this very day.

            D                    G
You'll see green alligators and long necked geese,
      A                             D             Dsus2        
Some humpty backed camels and some chimpanzees.
      D                            G
Some cats and rats elephants, but sure as you're born,

You're never gonna see no u--ni---corn
