[Intro] G Em C D (x4) [Verse 1]
         G                   Em
Well I heard they castrated Castro

              C                     G
I heard they cut off everything he had

        G              Em
What a dirty low down thing to do

    C                G
To mess him up like that

      G               Em
They dumped him in a jungle

        C                 G
In the land of the sugar cane

      G                  Em
Ever since the day they fiddled around

            C                   G
I said he ain't never been the same
[Pre-Chorus]
       C   G
I say Oooh-La

       C   G
I say Oooh-La

       C   G
I say Oooh-La
[Verse 2]
        G                    Em
Well I heard they castrated Castro

    C                         G
Because he was the people's friend

      G                      Em
They told him once and they told him twice

        C                    G
Said I ain't gonna tell you again

      G            Em
They put a bit of pressure on him

                C                        G
That's when he told them what they could do

        G                     Em
So the word came down from a northern town

           C            G
"Set up a jungle rendezvous"
[Pre-Chorus]
       C   G
I say Oooh-La

       C   G
I say Oooh-La

        C   G
We say Oooh-La
G A [Chorus]
                         D                 E
He had been living in a different world

                       A        F#m
Then he was nutted by reality

                          D
He had been living in another tree

     E
Then he flew down

    D
To see what happened
A [Verse 3]
                     E
I went out to see my sister

            A
She was not in

                        E
So I went and bought a paper

            A
Then I returned

                       E
She was well into the racing

        A
On the TV

                         D
She has never been that fond of me

            E
I went and turned her over
A [Chorus]
                          D               E
See I'd been living in a different world

                      A        F#m
Then I was nutted by reality

                         D
I had been living in another tree

     E
Then I flew down

    D
To see what happens
A [Verse 4]
                       E
I was listening to an echo

           A
I was impressed

                         E
Even though I could not see it

            A
It was the most

                      E               A
I was jumping and a-gleeing at every one

                     D
I was speaking in a foreign tongue

             E
My pleasure gave no pleasure
A [Chorus]
                           D                E
See I'd been living in a different world

                        A       F#m
Then I was nutted by reality

                          D
I had been barking up another tree

     E
Then I flew down

    D
To see what happened
[Outro] G C F G C (x2) Eb F Bb Eb (x4) D E
