 C#m7             Ab7                       C#m7 
Everybody wants to be a cat,
                       A7 
Because a cat's the only cat
           Ab7                           C#m7 
Who knows where it's at.
 C#m7                     Ab7                             C#m7           A7 
Everybody's pickin' up on that feline beat,
                                                             C#m7 
'Cause everything else is obsolete.
CHORUS
             F#m                   F#m/F                     F#m/E                   B7 
Now a square with a horn, makes you wish you weren't born,
           E 
Ever'time he plays 
                         D#°                     Ab7               D#°               A7 
And with a square in the act, He can set music back
                 C#m7  D#°  Ab7 
To the caveman days.
             C#m7                         Ab7                               C#m7 
I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing,
             A7                                           Ab7                   C#m7 
But a cat's the only cat who knows how to swing.
         C#m7                 Ab7                                   C#m7                     A7 
Who wants to dig Along-haired gig or stuff like that?
                                                   Ab7  C#m7 
When everybody wants to be a cat.
(SOLO)
   C#m7         Ab7                     C#m7 
Everybody wants to be a cat,
                       A7 
Because a cat's the only cat
           Ab7                         C#m7 
Who knows where it's at 
             C#m7                         Ab7                       C#m7             A7 
While playin' jazz you always have a welcome mat,
                                                 Ab7           C#m7 
'Cause everybody digs a swingin' cat.
                                             C#m  C#m9 
Everybody wants to be cat.
