A minorAm
Way down in the Congo land lived a happy chimpanzee
C majorC G7G7 D MajorD G+G
She loved a monkey with a long tail lordy how she loved him
A minorAm
Each night he would find her there swingin' in the coconut tree
G7G7 D7D7 G+G
And the monkey gay at the break of day loved to hear his chimpie say
C majorC
Aba daba daba daba daba daba dab said the chimpie to the monk
G7G7
Aba daba daba daba daba daba dab said the monkey to the chimp
C majorC
All night long they'd chatter away all day long they were happy and gay

Swingin' and singin' in their honky tonky way
C majorC
Aba daba daba daba daba daba dab means monk I love but you
