Verse 1
A (G major) Deer Was an Ele (E minor) phant
Living (C major) in the zoo,
(G major) (C major) in the city hu (D major) mans know as Prague. (G major)
I did not fear the flood (E minor) waters of (C major) 2002, (G major)
Although (A minor) he was cold and waterlogged. (D major)
Call (E minor) out to the animals, (B minor) do not be afraid,
For (C major) I've heard the old ones tell a (G major) tale
Of (D major) (E minor) the floods that claimed the land
The (B minor) last time humans strayed
And (A minor) of the boat on which
we all will sail (D major)
There's a (G major) big boat com (E minor) ing
over (C major) the wa (G major) ter
Over (C major) the wa (G major) ter, I know (D major)
There's a (G major) big boat (E minor) com ing
over (C major) the wa (G major) ter,
and (A minor) over the wa (D major) ter we'll
go (G major) (C major) (D major) (G major) (C major)
(D major)
The (G major) water kept on (E minor) rising,
how the an (C major) imals did shiver
Huddling (G major) (C major) close togeth (D major) er to keep warm (G major)
Sea lions swam (E minor) from their pools
Down (C major) the Danube River (G major)
They (A minor) heard a deer call (D major) ing
through the storm (G major)
There's a big boat com (E minor) ing
over (C major) the wa (G major) ter
Over (C major) the wa (G major) ter, I know (D major)
There's a (G major) big boat com (E minor) ing
over (C major) the wa (G major) ter,
and (A minor) over the wa (D major) ter we'll go (G major)
A (D major) (E minor) sea keeper named Anna
hadn't (B minor) slept in seven days
Though oth (C major) ers fled,
she would not leave Kadir (G major)
(D major) And (E minor) when the water reached his eyes,
she (B minor) took a steel suitcase
She (A minor) went to him and
whispered in his (D major) ear
There's (B minor) (D major) a (G major) big boat com
(E minor) in' over (C major) the (G major) water
Over the water, I know (D major)
There's a (G major) big boat com
(E minor) in' over (C major) the water (G major)
And (A minor) over the wa (D major) ter, we'll go (G major)
Qadir saw a lightning (E minor) bolt
flashed (C major) across the skies. (G major)
He (C major) felt a gentle bump (D major) behind his ear. (G major)
And then that mighty ele (E minor) phant
could not (C major) believe his eye (G major) s.
He (A minor) cried out, hey (D major) everyone,
it's (G major) here!
There's a big boat coming
over (C major) the wa (G major) ter,
Over (C major) the wa (G major) ter I (D major) know
(G major) There's (D major) a (G major) big boat coming
Over (A minor) the (C major) wa (G major) ter
And (A minor) over the wa (D major) ter we'll go (G major) (D major)
There's a (G major) big boat com (E minor) ing
Over (C major) the wa (G major) ter
Over (C major) the wa (G major) ter I know (D major) (C major)
(D major) There's a (G major) big boat com (E minor) ing
Over (C major) the water (G major) ,
and (A minor) over the wa (D major) ter we'll go (E minor)
Over (A minor) the wa (D major) ter we'll go (G major) you
