[Verse 1]
            A
I think I'm sophisticated
                                 E
'Cause I'm living my life like a good homosapien
    A
But all around me everybody's multiplying
             E
'Til they're walking round like flies man
   D                                               A
So I'm no better than the animals sitting in their cages
In the zoo man
'Cause compared to the flowers and the birds and the trees
E           A
I am an ape man

[Verse 2]
            A
I think I'm so educated and I'm so civilized
             E
'Cause I'm a strict vegetarian
             A
But with the overpopulation and inflation and starvation
        E
And the crazy politicians
  D
I don't feel safe in this world no more
  A
I don't want to die in a nuclear war
                                           E
I want to sail away to a distant shore and make like an ape
A
man

[Chorus]
A
I'm an ape man
I'm an ape ape man
          E
No I'm an ape man
      A
I'm a King Kong man
I'm a voodoo man
          E
No I'm an ape man
          D
'Cause compared to the sun that sits in the sky
   A
Compared to the clouds as they roll by
Compared to the bugs and the spiders and flies
E           A
I am an ape man
D              A
na na na na na na na
D E A

[Interlude]
A E A
E           D
 'Cause the only time that I feel at ease
   A
Is swinging up and down in a coconut tree
Oh what a life of luxury
   E              A
To be like an ape man

[Chorus]
A
I'm an ape man
I'm an ape ape man
          E
No I'm an ape man
      A
I'm a King Kong man
I'm a voodoo man
          E
No I'm an ape man
  D
I look out the window,
but I can't see the sky
    A
the air pollution is afogging up my eyes
I want to get out of this city alive
    E                A
And make like an ape man
D              A
na na na na na na na
D E A               E
     Oh Come on and love me

[Bridge]
              A
Be my ape man girl
                E
And we'll be so happy
              A
In my ape man world

[Chorus]
A
I'm an ape man
I'm an ape ape man
          E
No I'm an ape man
      A
I'm a King Kong man
I'm a voodoo man
          E
No I'm an ape man
D
I'll be your Tarzan, you'll be my Jane
A
I'll keep you warm and you'll keep me sane
we'll sit in the trees and eat bananas all day
E                A
Just like an ape man
A
I'm an ape man
I'm an ape ape man
          E
No I'm an ape man
      A
I'm a King Kong man
I'm a voodoo man
          E
No I'm an ape man
  D
I don't feel safe in this world no more
  A
I don't want to die in a nuclear war
I want to sail away to a distant shore
    E                A  D A D A
And make like an ape man
