(Em)Man gave names to all the animals
In the be(B7)ginning, in the be(Em)ginning
Man gave names to all the animals
In the be(B7)ginning, long (Em)time ago

He saw an animal that liked to (B7)growl
Big furry paws and he liked to (Em)howl
Great big furry back and furry (A)hair
(B)Ah, think I'll (B7)call it a (Em)bear"

Man gave names to all the animals
In the be(B7)ginning, in the be(Em)ginning
Man gave names to all the animals
In the be(B7)ginning, long (Em)time ago

He saw an animal up on a (B7)hill
Chewing up so much grass until she was (Em)filled
He saw milk coming out but he didn't know (A)how
(B)Ah, think I'll (B7)call it a (Em)cow

Man gave names to all the animals
In the be(B7)ginning, in the be(Em)ginning
Man gave names to all the animals
In the be(B7)ginning, long (Em)time ago

He saw an animal that liked to (B7)snort
Horns on his head and they weren't too (Em)short
It looked like there wasn't nothing that he couldn't (A)pull
(B)Ah, I think I'll (B7)call it a (Em)bull

Man gave names to all the animals
In the be(B7)ginning, in the be(Em)ginning
Man gave names to all the animals
In the be(B7)ginning, long (Em)time ago

He saw an animal leaving a muddy (B7)trail
Real dirty face and a curly (Em)tail
He wasn't too small and he wasn't too (A)big
(B)Ah, think I'll (B7)call it a (Em)pig

Man gave names to all the animals
In the be(B7)ginning, in the be(Em)ginning
Man gave names to all the animals
In the be(B7)ginning, long (Em)time ago

Next animal that he did (B7)meet
Had wool on his back and hooves (Em)on his feet
Eating grass on a mountainside so (A)steep
(B)Ah, think I'll (B7)call it a (Em)sheep

Man gave names to all the animals
In the be(B7)ginning, in the be(Em)ginning
Man gave names to all the animals
In the be(B7)ginning, long (Em)time ago

He saw an animal as smooth as (B7)glass
Slithering his way through the (Em)grass
Saw him disappear by a tree near a (A)lake 
(B)Ah,think I,ll (B7)call it a (Em)Snake

Man gave names to all the animals
In the be(B7)ginning, in the be(Em)ginning
Man gave names to all the animals
In the be(B7)ginning, long (Em)time ago
