Amaj7 = x02224 G = 320033 Em = 022000 Em7 = 022030
A7 = x02223 (G) = 3xxxxx (Em) = 0xxxxx A6 = x02222
D7 = xx0212 (D/F#)= 2xxxxx
The (D/F#) is suggested by the passing F# bass note,
but is not played as a full chord.
On some live performances Paul Simon played this song
a tone higher, with a capo at the 2nd fret
***************
Amaj7 Someone told me it's all happening A7at the zoo,

It's a light and tum - ble journey,
(Em) (D/F#) G (G) (D/F#) Em
From the East Side to the park;

Just a fine, and fan - cy, ramble to the zoo, | / / / / |
G (G) (D/F#) Em
But you can take the crosstown bus,
(Em) (D/F#) G (G) (D/F#) Em
If it's raining, or it's cold,

And the ani - mals will love it if you do, if you do, now!
