[Intro]
| D | D/A | D |
| Bm7 | Am | D/A |

[Verse 1]
D D/A D D/B D D/A D
Now that I've used up all my ideas
F D Am D G
Here in my little house by the sea
Em D/F# A D Bm7
I search for a usable memory but none comes to me

[Verse 2]
D D/A D D/B D D/A D
In grade one, my teacher could do embalming
F D Am D G
She'd stuff the bodies of dead little birds
Em D/F# A D Bm7
She told us if ever we found one, just to bring it to her

[Chorus]
F Am
And in the science room was an iguana
F E
It lay very still in its cage
Bm G C
And we'd feed him living flies

[Verse 3]
D D/A D D/B D D/A D
Then she'd read the old testament to us
F D Am D G
But first she'd remind us the stories were true
Em D/F# A D Bm7
And we'd hear of locusts and plagues and the tortures they knew

[Chorus]
F Am
And in the science room was an iguana
F E
I remember it now in my house
Bm G C
by the seaside Swatting flies
