See You Later Alligator

[Intro - Spoken in a high pitched voice!]

"See you later alligator! "

[Verse 1]
                                               CCCC                                           CCCC7

Well I saw my baby walkin'               With another man today
                                               FFFF                                               CCCC

Yeah I saw my baby walkin'               With another man today

                                                                    G7G7G7G7                                                 CCCC
When I asked her "What's the matter?"                       This is what I heard her say

[Chorus]
                              C (strum)

See you later alli-gator, after 'while, crocodile

                              F                                       C
See you later alli-gator, after 'while, croco-dile
                                              G7            [CUT!]                                                            CCCC

Can't you see you're in my way now?          Don't you know you cramp my style?

[Verse 2]
When I thought of what she told me                 Nearly made me lose my head
When I thought of what she told me                 Nearly made me lose my head
But the next time that I saw her                        Reminded her of what she said

[Chorus]


[Verse 3]
She said, "I'm sorry, pretty daddy           You know my loving's just for you. "
She said, "I'm sorry, pretty daddy           You know my loving's just for you
Won't you say that you'll forgive me        And say your love for me is true. "

 

I said, "Wait a minute, 'gator                   I know you mean't it just for play. "
I said, "Wait a minute, 'gator                   I know you mean't it just for play
Don't you know you really hurt me          And this is what I have to say. "

[Chorus]

[Outro]

                              C
See you later alli-gator       After 'while crocodile
                             F

See you later alligator      

                FF                  G7G7

So long,        that's all
          C

Goodbye

 

 

"OH MY!" (Spoken)
