Guitar chords with lyrics

Intro:
Em  Bm  Em  Bm

Verse:
Em                  Bm
Did we ever meet in Zanzibar
Em                    Bm
Two caucasians at the town bazaar
Am              C       Em  Bm
Are you who you say you are?
Em                 Bm
Did you offer me a Dutch cigar?
Em                                Bm
You must have thought you were so bourgeois
Am              C        Em  Bm
Are you who you say your are?

Pre-Chorus:
G               D                  G    C     D
After all these years, you haven't changed at all
C           Am               D
But I can't say you look the same

Chorus:
Em                     Bm
Summer days are hot in Zanzibar
Em                      Bm
And at night the sky is filled with stars
Am              C    Em
Listen, you can hear guitars

Instrumental:
Em   Bm    Em   Bm   Am  C  Em  Bm

Verse:
Em                      Bm
Native people, skins as black as tar
Em                            Bm
Wear bright-coloured robes in Zanzibar
Am                 C        Em
They've never even heard of ska
Em                  Bm
On a guided tour of limestone caves
Em                   Bm
Did we see where the traders kept their slaves?
Am                        Em   Bm
Was that how we spent the day?

Pre-Chorus:
G               D                  G   C      D
After all these years, you haven't changed at all
    C       Am               D     Em
But I can't say you look the same

Chorus:
Em                   Bm
I have never been to Zanzibar
Em                       Bm
I have always thought it was too far
Am                 C       Em
You're not who you say you are
Am                 C       Em
You're not who you say you are
Am                 C       Em
You're not who you say you are
