Music by Oliver Wallace; Lyrics by Ned Washington [Intro] F6 F#dim Gm7 C9 [Verse 1]
        Gm     C9             F6 E7  F6
I saw a peanut stand, heard a rubber band

        Gm          C9         F6
I saw a needle that winked its eye

      F6      F#dim          Gm   Bbm
But I think I will have seen everything

     F6       Gm C9    F6
When I see an elephant fly
[Verse 2]
        Gm     C9                  F6 E7   F6
I saw a front porch swing, heard a diamond ring

        Gm        C9       F6
I saw a polka-dot railroad tie

      F6      F#dim          Gm   Bbm
But I think I will have seen everything

     F6       Gm C9    F6
when I see an elephant fly
[Bridge 1]
Bbmaj7                    Bbm
I saw a clothes horse, he r'ar up and buck

F6                                 F6    E7  F6
And they tell me that a man made a vegetable truck

Bbmaj7             Bbm
I didn't see that, I only heard

    F6         F#dim          Gm        C9
But just to be sociable, I'll take your word
[Verse 3]
          Gm       C9            F6  E7   F6
I heard a fireside chat, I saw a baseball bat

           Gm             C9          F6
And I just laughed till I thought I'd die

    F6     F#dim            Gm   Bbm
But I'd be done see'n about everything

     F6       Gm C9    F6
When I see an elephant fly
[Bridge 2]
Bb             Bbm
I even heard a chocolate drop

F                          F E     F
I went into a store, saw a bicycle shop

Bb                 Bbm
You can't deny the things you see

    F              F#dim               Gm         C9
but I know there's certain things that just can't be
[Verse 4]
          Gm     C9             F6  E7   F6
The other day by chance, saw an old barn dance

           Gm              C9          F6
And I just laughed 'till I thought I'd die

      F6      F#dim          Gm   Bbm
But I think I will have seen everything

     F6       Gm C9    F6
when I see an elephant fly
