Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Asus2][Esus4][Am][Esus4][Am][Em][C][Em][Am]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
Did we ever meet in [Bm]Zanzibar,[Em]
Two Caucasians at the
[Bm]town [Asus2]bazaar?
Are you who [Am]you [C]say you [Em]are?[Bm][Em]
Did you offer me [Bm]a Dutch cigar[Em]?
You must have thought you
[Bm]were so [Am]bourgeois.
Are you who you [C]say [Em]your [Bm]are?[G]

[Verse 2]
After all these [D]years,
you haven't [G]changed [C]at [D]all[C]
But I can't [Am]say you look the s[D]ame.

[Verse 3]
[Em]Summer days are hot in Zanzi[Bm]bar
[Em]And at night the sky is
[Bm]filled with [A]stars.
[Am]Listen. [C]You can hea[Em]r[C][Bm][Em]
[Bm]guit[Am]ars.
[C][Em][Bm]

[Verse 4]
[Em]
Native people, skins as [Bm]black as tar,
[Em]Wear bright-colored robes
robes in [Bm]Zanzibar.[A]
They've never even [C]heard
[Em]of S[Bm]ka![Em]
On a tour [Bm]of limestone [Em]caves
Did we see where [Bm]traders
kept their [Am]slaves?
Was that how we [C]spent [Em]the [Bm]day?

[Verse 5]
[G]After all these [D]years,
you haven't [G]changed [C]at all[D]
[C]But I can't [Am]say you look the same.
[D]

[Verse 6]
[Em]
I have never been [Bm]to Zanzibar
[Em]I have always thought it was[Bm]
[Am]too [C]far[Em][Bm]
You're [Am]not who you s[C]ay y[Em]ou are.

[Outro 1]
[Bm][Am][C][Em][C][Em][E][Esus4]
