When I See An Elephant Fly(Chords)

	        Em7    Edim            D      B7 
I saw a peanut stand, heard a rubber band, 
 
        Em7         Edim        D   D6 
I saw a needle that winked its eye. 
 
       F#7                   B7 
But I'd be done see'n about everything 
 
    E7/9       A6/7/9  A7/9  A7sus4  D 
When I  see an   el -    e  - phant fly.  
 
 
        Em7         Edim            D      B7 
I saw a front porch swing, heard a diamond ring, 
 
        Em7        Edim     D    D6 
I saw a polka-dot railroad tie, 
 
      F#7                     B7 
But I'd be done see'n about everything 
 
    E7/9       A6/7/9  A7/9  A7sus4  D 
When I  see an   el -    e  - phant fly. 
 
 G  Em7  G/B A7/5+  D   D7 
Dah daht doo daht wow. 
 
 
   G             Em       Gm7         Gdim 
I saw a clothes horse, he r'ar up and buck, 
 
          D              G          G/B       D 
And they tell me that a man made a vegetable truck; 
 
   G         Em7  Gm7 
I didn't see that, I only heard, 
 
    E7        Bm7/5-           A7   E7    A7 
But just to be sociable, I'll take your word.  
 
 
          Em7      Edim           D        B7 
I heard a fireside chat, I saw a baseball bat, 
 
            Em7            Edim        D    D6 
And I just laughed till I thought I'd die; 
 
    F#7                     B7 
But I'd be done see'n about everything 
 
    E7/9       A6/7/9  A7/9  A7sus4  D 
When I  see an   el -    e  - phant fly.
