Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Did you ever notice that some people don't even think,
[C]let [G]alone act like other people?
Now, you take
Tarzan.
Did you know that
Tarzan ain't even married to
Jane?
[D]Well, he ain't. [G]I can see that poor girl n[D]ow squinting
[G]her eyes and looking up some big tree and saying,
Tarzan,
honey, let's get married this afternoon.
[C]And I can see old[G]
Tarzan looking down at her saying,
Jane, darling, I'd love to,
but me and
Cheetah's busy [Am]busting up
[D]coconuts for supper[G].
Did you know
Tarzan ain't never paid no income
tax?
Well, he ain't.
I can see that poor girl now saying,
Tarzan, you better pay your income
tax
or they gonna come [C]and get you.
[G]An d old
Tarzan is standing
right up there in that tree
and yell, let them come,
Jane, darling.
and me and
Cheeto will chuck them with these here
[D]coconut[G]s.
[D]Did you know
Tarzan ain't even been vaccinated
[G]for smallpox?
I can just hear
Jane saying now,
Tarzan, come on down here
and get vaccinated [D]for smallpox.
[G]And old
Tarzan would say, phooey on you,
[Em]Jane.
[D]Did you know
Tarzan can[G]'t read?
Well, he can't.
Now I can just hear
Jane saying, ha, ha, ha,
Tarzan,
you can't read.
And old
[D]Tarzan would just stand right
up there in that tree
with [F]a big [G]grin on his face and say,
hit her with a coconut, chee[D]tah.[G][C][D][G]
I had a friend named
[D]Bill
He [C]lived over there on [D]that big [G]hill
I went to see him yesterday
[D]Then [C]I heard s[D]omeone s[G]ay
You're [D]just in time to be too late
We [G]shot
Bill this morning
He [D]read some books we didn't appreciate
[G]So we shot
Bill this mornin'
[C]You missed the crowd all filled with hate
[G]We burned his house last night at eight
[D]Ain't you sorry that you're late
We shot
Bill this [G]mornin'[C][D][G]
I had a friend named
[D]Sam.
[C]Sam was a [D]mighty [G]man.
I went to see [D]him yesterday.
Then [C]I heard s[D]omeone s[G]ay,
You're [D]just in time to be too late
We [G]hung
Sam this morning
He [D]had ideas he thought were great
[G]We hung
Sam this morning
[C]He said all men should be free
[G]But we know this can never be
An[D]d so we hung him to a tree
We hung
Sam this [G]mornin'
[C][D][G]
