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!

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!)

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,

When playing jazz you always has a welcome mat,
Fmaj7 Em7 Am Em7 Am Am
'Cause every - body digs a swing - ing cat!
