[Verse 1]

G    C
Did ya ever fill a water glass
                                    G7
And see a duck travelin on his ass, yes, yes
                           C
And the lily pads upon the pond,
      D7                       G  E D B E G, E D B E G
Bring back a song, of day gone by.



[Verse 2]

G
Did you ever see an elephant grunt,
                                    G7
Take her to the river, wash her yes, yes, yes
                           C
And the lily pads upon the pond,
      D7                       G  E D B E G, E D B E G
Bring back a song, of day gone by.


[Verse 3]

G
Sit and try to figure what you think,
                             G7
Kiddin, I guess I'll go on drinkin,
                           C
And the lily pads upon the pond,
            D7                 G  E D B E G, E D B E G
Bring back a song, of day gone by.



[Verse 4]

G
Well there ain't no reason I should stop now,
                             G7
It ain't gonna be alright no how

                           C
And the lily pads upon the pond,
            D7                  G  E D B E G, E D B E G
Bring back a song, of day gone by.


[Verse 5]

G
Which way does the river run
                                G7
Through the window to the rising sun

                           C
And the lily pads upon the pond,
            D7                  G  E D B E G, E D B E G
Bring back a song, of day gone by.

[Verse 6]

G
Well I guess I'll finish beer,
                                G7
Get on my motorcycle, get out of here.

                           C
And the lily pads upon the pond,
            D7                  G  E D B E G, E D B E G
Bring back a song, of day gone by.
