Phenomenal Cat The Kinks
(FLUTE PLAYS OVER:) C Bb F D G D G
A l[D]ong, long t[G]ime a[D]go, in a la[D]nd of id[G]iot b[D]oys
There l[G]ived the c[D]at, a ph[F]enomenal c[C]at
Who l[Bb]oved to wallow all d[F]ay
No one bothered him as he sat, content in his tree
He just lived to eat cos it kept him fat
And that's how he wanted to stay
CHORUS #1:
[Dm] [A] [C]
[F]Though he was big and fat, all the world was good to him
And he po[Dm]inted out on the m[A]ap all the p[C]laces he had [Fsus4]been
[Dm] [Dm/G] [Dm/F] [Dm/E]
Cowe[Dm/C]s, Sardini[Dm/Bb]a, Katma[A]ndu, The Scilly Isles and Sahara, too
Fum, fum, diddle-um di
La la la la, la-la la la
La la la la, la-la la la la
La la la la-la la la
CHORUS #2:
Once when he was thin, he had flown to old Hong Kong
And had learned the secret of life, and the sea and the sky beyond
So he gave up his diet and sat in a tree
And ate himself through eternity
Fum, fum, diddle-um di
La la la la la-la la la
La la la la, la-la la la la
La la la la-la la la
Fum, fum, diddle-um di
Fum, fum, diddle-um di
