Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][C][G][D][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
Big gorilla at [C]the
L.A. Zoo
[G]Snatched the glasses right [D]off my [G]face
Took the keys [C]to my [G]BMW
Left me here [D]to take his [G]place

[Verse 2]
I wish the ape a [C]lot [G]of success
I'm sorry [D]my apartment's a mess
Most of [G]all I'm sorry if I [C]made you [G]blue
I'm betting the gorilla will, too

[Verse 3]
They say [G]Jesus will find
you [C]wherever you go
But [G]when He'll come looking for you,
[D]they don't [G]know
In the mean time, keep your [C]profile low
Gor[G]illa, you're a [D]desper[G]ado

[Verse 4]
[Em]He built a house on an acre [D]of land
[C]He called it 'Villa Gorilla [G]Now[Em]'
I hear he's [D]getting [C]divorced
Laying low at L'Ermitage, of course
[F][G]

[Interlude 1]
[C][G][D][G][C][G]
[Em]

[Verse 5]
Then the ape grew [D]very depressed
[C]Went through Transactio[G]nal Analysis
[Em]He plays racquetball and runs [D]in the rain
[C]Still he's shackled to a platinum cha[G]in

[Verse 6]
Big gorilla at [C]the L.A. Zoo
[G]Snatched the glasses
right [D]off my [G]face
Took the keys [C]to my [G]BMW
Left me here to take his [D]place
[G]

[Outro 1]
[C][G][D][G][C][G]
[C][G][D][G]
