E7     Am     [ch]Ammaj7[/ch]      Am7    Am6
    Everybody wants to be a cat,
          Fmaj7         [ch]Dm6/F[/ch]     F7              E7
Because a cat's the only cat who knows where it's at,
             Am        [ch]Ammaj7[/ch]            Am7   Am6
(Tell me!) Everybody's picking up on that feline beat,
Fmaj7                   Em7             Am   Em7  Am
      'Cause everything else is obso - lete!


    Dm          [ch]Dmmaj7[/ch]       Dm7               G7          C
A square with a horn makes you wish you weren't born, every time he plays,
             Dm          E7           Dm         E7          Am    Dm   E7
But with a square in the act, you can set music back to the cave - man days!
         F7        E7
Ze - de, dum, bo - zay!


      Am              [ch]Ammaj7[/ch]            Am7    Am6
I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing,
         Fmaj7          [ch]Dm6/F[/ch]    F7           E7
Still, a cat's the only cat who knows how to swing,
     Am             [ch]Ammaj7[/ch]             Am7       Am6
Who wants to dig a long-haired gig, and stuff like that?
Fmaj7              Em7           Am  Em7  Am
      When every - body wants to be   a   cat!


    Dm          [ch]Dmmaj7[/ch]       Dm7               G7
A square with a horn makes you wish you weren't born,
       C
Every time he plays, (Oh, a - rinky, tinky - tinky!)
             Dm          E7           Dm         E7          Am    Dm   E7
But with a square in the act, you can set music back to the cave - man days!
          F7             E7
(Oh, a - rinky, tinky - tinky!)


           Am     [ch]Ammaj7[/ch]      Am7    Am6
Yes---, everybody wants to be a cat,
          Fmaj7         [ch]Dm6/F[/ch]     F7              E7
Because a cat's the only cat who knows where it's at,
       Am             [ch]Ammaj7[/ch]       Am7   Am6
When playing jazz you always has a welcome mat,
Fmaj7                Em7           Am    Em7  Am    Am
      'Cause every - body digs a swing - ing  cat!
