Way down in the Congo land lived a happy chimpanzee  
C            G7              D         G  
She loved a monkey with a long tail lordy how she loved him  
Am  
Each night he would find her there swingin' in the coconut tree  
G7                                                        D7     G  
And the monkey gay at the break of day loved to hear his chimpie say  
C  
Aba daba daba daba daba daba dab said the chimpie to the monk  
                                             G7  
Aba daba daba daba daba daba dab said the monkey to the chimp  
                                    C  
All night long they'd chatter away all day long they were happy and gay  
D7                             G7  
Swingin' and singin' in their honky tonky way
