Amaj7 = x02224   G    = 320033    Em  = 022000   Em7 = 022030
A7    = x02223  (G)   = 3xxxxx   (Em) = 0xxxxx   A6  = x02222
D7    = xx0212  (D/F#)= 2xxxxx 

The (D/F#) is suggested by the passing F# bass note,
but is not played as a full chord.

On some live performances Paul Simon played this song
a tone higher, with a capo at the 2nd fret

Amaj7                                    A7
      Someone told me it's all happening at the zoo,
D7                    G    (G)(D/F#)   Em
    I do believe it,      I do  be - lieve it's true!


(Em)  (D/F#)  G   (G)  (D/F#) Em
 Mmm - mmm - mmm, mmm - mmm - mmm---!
(Em)  (D/F#)  G   (G)  (D/F#) Em
 Woh - oh,    oh - oh,  mmm - mmm - mmm---!


(Em)    (D/F#) G       (G) (D/F#)  Em
    It's  a  light and tum - ble journey,
(Em) (D/F#) G       (G) (D/F#) Em
From  the  East Side to  the  park;
(Em)(D/F#) G        (G) (D/F#)  Em           D     D7
Just  a   fine, and fan - cy, ramble to the zoo, | /  /  /  / |


G              (G)  (D/F#)  Em
   But you can take  the crosstown bus,
(Em) (D/F#)  G    (G)  (D/F#)  Em
  If  it's raining, or  it's  cold,
(Em) (D/F#) G    (G) (D/F#) Em            A6        Em7
 And  the  ani - mals will love it if you do, if you do, now!

   A6                            Em7
|  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  /  |

     The monkeys stand  for honesty, gi -raffes are in - sin - cere,
(Em)(D/F#) G     (G)  (D/F#) Em                 D      D7
 And the  ele - phants are kindly, but they're dumb, | /  /  /  / |

(Em) (D/F#) G        (G)(D/F#) Em  (Em)(D/F#)  G  (G)(D/F#)  Em  (Em)(D/F#)
 And  the  zoo-keep - er  is  very fond  of   rum!         | /  /  /  /  |

Pigeons plot  in  secre - cy,  and hamsters turn  on  frequent - ly,
   (D/F#) G   (G)    (D/F#)  Em     (Em)    (D/F#) G
What a   gas!     You gotta come and see, at the  zoo - oo!
