[Intro]  
G#m   B
[Verse 1]
I hAeard there's a brand new zoo in Thailand
So AI hitch hike on a private flight and got there, man, fast!
I'Ave greased every palm from A to Z
"HAey mister, wanna date with me?"
I Aknow what I've got to do and I'll do it
[Pre-chorus]
FrDom the Bmday I was bDorn
The whole wBmorld's been my stepping stAone
I Bmcome from a long line of people. BmWho've never waited in a line
[Verse 2]
I've got a Adumb dance inside my pants, man
And I've wAatched all the latest shows on Bing-Bong
I rode a gAift horse into town
"Free subsAcriptions all around"
You look lAike you could use a night in heaven
[Pre-chorus]
WeD're so Bmin love
Everywhere Dwe go it's Bmwalking on the wAater
And suddenBmly all the pain and all the tears are music to my ears
[Chorus]
'CAause I'm a fancy man
FaAncy man
I'Am a fancy man
FaAncy man
FaF#mncy man
[Verse 2]
I looked iAnto my eyes and I saw order
An endless Arow of flowers along the border
It's no orAdinary tragedy
Let the crAedits roll on the top of me
First I'm Agoing to do it, then I'll do it
[Pre-chorus]
'CDause love's Bmthe yes
Within the Dyes
And everyone'Bms walking on the wAater
OBmnly the finest worms will feast on me. Be sure to RSVP
[Chorus]
'CAause I'm a fancy man
FaAncy man
I'Am a fancy man
FaAncy man
FaF#mncy man
[Final verse]
SoAmetimes I get to think
Is Athis fancy thinking?
Is Athis a fancy thought?
I'Am pretty sure it's not

[Intro]

G#m B

[Verse 1]

I heard there's a brand new zoo in Thailand

So I hitch hike on a private flight and got there, man, fast!

I've greased every palm from A to Z

"Hey mister, wanna date with me?"

I know what I've got to do and I'll do it

[Pre-chorus]

D Bm D

From the day I was born

Bm A

The whole world's been my stepping stone

Bm Bm

I come from a long line of people. Who've never waited in a line

[Verse 2]

I've got a dumb dance inside my pants, man

And I've watched all the latest shows on Bing-Bong

I rode a gift horse into town

"Free subscriptions all around"

You look like you could use a night in heaven

[Pre-chorus]

D Bm

We're so in love

D Bm A

Everywhere we go it's walking on the water

And suddenly all the pain and all the tears are music to my ears

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm a fancy man

Fancy man

I'm a fancy man

Fancy man

F#m

Fancy man

[Verse 2]

I looked into my eyes and I saw order

An endless row of flowers along the border

It's no ordinary tragedy

Let the credits roll on the top of me

First I'm going to do it, then I'll do it

[Pre-chorus]

D Bm

'Cause love's the yes

Within the yes

Bm A

And everyone's walking on the water

Only the finest worms will feast on me. Be sure to RSVP

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm a fancy man

Fancy man

I'm a fancy man

Fancy man

F#m

Fancy man

[Final verse]

Sometimes I get to think

Is this fancy thinking?

Is this a fancy thought?

I'm pretty sure it's not
