Verse 1:
           Chord diagramA minorAm                Chord diagramG+G
There’s an alligator in the house
          Chord diagramE7E7                      Chord diagramA minorAm
Chord diagramA augmentedA toothy grin appears beneath my chair
         Chord diagramA minorAm                       Chord diagramG+G
Chord diagramA augmentedA scaly tail goes sliding out of sight
          Chord diagramE7E7                  Chord diagramA minorAm
Now it’s gone - was it ever there?
          Chord diagramA minorAm                      Chord diagramG+G
Something odd has moved into the house
            Chord diagramE7E7                       Chord diagramA minorAm
Reptilian tracks lead underneath our bed
             Chord diagramA minorAm                        Chord diagramG+G
And all the cats are tasty, fat, and scared
          Chord diagramE7E7                  Chord diagramA minorAm
Though I doubt we’ve lost any yet

Chorus:
     Chord diagramA minorAm             Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramFF     Chord diagramE MajorE
So what’s the big deal? Doesn’t everyone
        Chord diagramE7E7                       Chord diagramA minorAm    Chord diagramE MajorE
have an alligator somewhere, somehow?
    Chord diagramA minorAm          Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramFF            Chord diagramE MajorE
And maybe this one has always been here,
      Chord diagramE7E7                     Chord diagramA minorAm
but I never noticed it till now.

Verse 2:
           Chord diagramA minorAm               Chord diagramG+G
There’s an alligator in the house
                Chord diagramE7E7                    Chord diagramG+G
Just caught her napping in the living room
        Chord diagramA minorAm                   Chord diagramG+G
She was dozing on the velvet couch
        Chord diagramE7E7                       Chord diagramA minorAm
And the cats were sleeping there too
           Chord diagramA minorAm               Chord diagramG+G
There’s an alligator in the house
        Chord diagramE7E7                      Chord diagramA minorAm
No one seems to mind except for me
         Chord diagramA minorAm                        Chord diagramG+G
Well, at least she doesn’t eat the cats
      Chord diagramE7E7                   Chord diagramA minorAm
I suspect she’d rather eat me
           Chord diagramA minorAm               Chord diagramG+G
There’s an alligator in the pit
        Chord diagramE7E7                     Chord diagramA minorAm
she is dancing wildly with the snakes
   Chord diagramA minorAm                   Chord diagramG+G
to win them over to her cause
         Chord diagramE7E7             Chord diagramA minorAm
she will do whatever it takes
           Chord diagramA minorAm                       Chord diagramG+G
They think I don’t see their little smiles
        Chord diagramE7E7                   Chord diagramA minorAm
as they plan a reptilian overthrow
      Chord diagramA minorAm                      Chord diagramG+G
but I hear them talking in my dreams
          Chord diagramE7E7                   Chord diagramA minorAm
they will not be sad to see me go!

Chorus:
     Chord diagramA minorAm             Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramFF     Chord diagramE MajorE
So what’s the big deal? Doesn’t everyone
        Chord diagramE7E7                       Chord diagramA minorAm    Chord diagramE MajorE
have an alligator somewhere, somehow?
    Chord diagramA minorAm          Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramFF            Chord diagramE MajorE
And maybe this one has always been here,
      Chord diagramE7E7                     Chord diagramA minorAm
but I never noticed it till now.

Solo:
Chord diagramA minorAm Chord diagramG+G Chord diagramE7E7 Chord diagramA minorAm
¡Olé!  Aligator... Aligator?  ¡Ah!

Verse 3:
     Chord diagramA minorAm                      Chord diagramG+G
I’ve begun to worry ‘bout my toes
         Chord diagramE7E7                          Chord diagramA minorAm
The alligator seems to think they’re nice
             Chord diagramA minorAm                    Chord diagramG+G
I’ve counted all of them a hundred times
       Chord diagramE7E7                       Chord diagramA minorAm
But I never got the same answer twice

           Chord diagramA minorAm              Chord diagramG+G
There’s an alligator in my bed
       Chord diagramE7E7                  Chord diagramA minorAm
she is not a master of disguise
       Chord diagramA minorAm                    Chord diagramG+G
just a pillow waiting for my head
         Chord diagramE7E7                     Chord diagramA minorAm
soft and sweet and hungrily she lies

           Chord diagramA minorAm               Chord diagramG+G
There’s an alligator in the house
          Chord diagramE7E7                      Chord diagramA minorAm
Today she joined me for a spot of tea
           Chord diagramA minorAm                         Chord diagramG+G
She helped herself to raspberries and cream
        Chord diagramE7E7                   Chord diagramA minorAm
And she didn’t leave any for me

        Chord diagramA minorAm                        Chord diagramG+G
Well I thought that I had seen it all
         Chord diagramE7E7                  Chord diagramA minorAm
but this alligator proved me wrong
       Chord diagramA minorAm                    Chord diagramG+G
like a lady as she drank her tea
    Chord diagramE7E7                     Chord diagramA minorAm
she sang to me this little song:

     Chord diagramA minorAm             Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramFF     Chord diagramE MajorE
“So what’s the big deal, doesn’t everyone
        Chord diagramE7E7                       Chord diagramA minorAm    Chord diagramE MajorE
have an alligator somewhere somehow?
  Chord diagramA minorAm              Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramFF               Chord diagramE MajorE
I know that you’d miss me if you found me gone
           Chord diagramE7E7                  Chord diagramA minorAm
though you never noticed until now!”

Chorus:
     Chord diagramA minorAm             Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramFF     Chord diagramE MajorE
So what’s the big deal? Doesn’t everyone
        Chord diagramE7E7                       Chord diagramA minorAm    Chord diagramE MajorE
have an alligator somewhere, somehow?
    Chord diagramA minorAm          Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramFF            Chord diagramE MajorE
And maybe this one has always been here,
      Chord diagramE7E7                     Chord diagramA minorAm
but I never noticed it till now.
