[Verse]
Am
Jennifer slept in her little bed
G Am
With dreams of a rabbit in her little head.
Am
Jennifer's rabbit, brown and white,
G
Left the house and ran away one night
Am G
Along with the turtle and a kangaroo
Am G Am
And seventeen monkeys from the city zoo,
E Am
And Jennifer too.
Dm Am
They ran through the forest and they all held hands.
G Am
They came to the ocean with the cookie crumb sands.
Dm Am
Called it the sea of the very best dreams,
G Am
And they all built a castle of the best moon beams.
E Am
And milky way streams.
Am
And there on the sand where the star fish play,
G
The ship sailed in from the moonbeam bay,
Am G
And they all went sailing on the starlight sea
AM G Am
Where they all had cookies with oolong tea,
E |Am
And Jenny had three.
Dm AM
They danced on the decks of the red-sailed brig;
G Am
The monkeys and the sailors did a whirling jig.
Dm Am
Turtle played the fiddle and the rabbit played kazoo,
G AM
And they bowed to each other as polite folks do.
E AM
And Jenny bowed too.
Am
Then, "My!" said the turtle as the clock struck three,
G
"The hour is growing very late for me."
Am G
"Not at all," said the rabbit, "And I'll tell you why,
Am G Am
We still haven't counted every star in the sky."
E Am
Said Jenny, "Let's try."
Dm Am
So they counted on the ship and they counted on the shore;
G Am
They counted through the forest to the bedroom door.
Dm Am
They counted in bed till they could count no more,
G Am
Then they all fell asleep and the final score
E Am
Was a trillion and four.
Dm Am
Yes, the rabbit and the turtle and the kangaroo,
G Am
And Jenny fell asleep like sleepy folks do,
E Am Asus2 A
Just like you.
