[Bm] [D] [G]
[Bm] [F#m]
[Bm] [Am] This is a song called [B] 17 Pink Sugar Elephants.
[G#] I wrote it when I was 18, I think in [N] 1963.
And I don't know what it's about, it just came by one day.
[Bm]
I saw [G] 17 pink [Bm] sugar elephants
Sitting under [G] a chestnut [Bm] tree
I said good [Bm] morning pink sugar elephants
[G] But they wouldn't [Em] speak [Bm] to me
[Em] Each [Bm] had two eyes but they [Em] couldn't [Bm] see me [Em] there
Each [Bm] had four legs [Em] but they couldn't [Bm] go in [G] line
So we just [A] sat there early on the [D] morning
Some naughty [A] person [G] and mud everywhere
[Bm] [Em]
[Bm] [Em] [Bm] Mmmmmmm [G] oh
[Bm] I [Bm] walked up [G] to one pink [Bm] sugar elephant
Asked why [G] wouldn't he [Bm] speak to me
But he was a factory made pink sugar elephant
[G] Gave to children [Em] for treats [Bm] after tea
[Em] He [Bm] had two [Em] eyes but he couldn't [Bm] see me [Em] there
He [Bm] had four legs [Em] but he couldn't go [D]
[G] anywhere
So we just [A] sat there in the autumn morning
[D] [A] Sun not yet risen [G] and working [Em] very [Bm] well
[Em]
[Bm] [Em] [Bm] Humming
[G] [Bm]
