Capo: 3rd fret

Intro:
(Em)-(B) [Meow!] (Em)-(B) [Meow!]

Would (Em)you like to hear an amazing thing
That (Am)happened to me one night?
While (D)looking out the hallway window
A (C)cat came into (B)sight.
A (Em)great big, black, huge beautiful cat.
He (Am)walked so grace-fully
(D)All alone in the pale moonlight,
He (C)moved majestical(B)ly.

The amazing (Em)cat! [Meow!] (B)
The amazing (Em)cat! [Meow!] (B)

I (Am)wondered if he could sense in me
A (Em)love for those wonderful cats
And (Am)as I got that very thought
The (F#)cat stopped in its (B)tracks!

Now (Em)how he could tell I was there
Is (Am)still a mystery.
(D)I was standing in the dark
So (C)how could he see (B)me?
He (Em)turned his head
And looked straight back
Through the (Am)window right at me,
And (D)though I could not see his eyes
I (C)felt them look at (B)me.

The amazing (Em)cat! [Meow!] (B)
The amazing (Em)cat! [Meow!] (B)

(Am)Then that cat came and sat
By the (Em)window in front of me!
(Am)Staring, staring, glaring, glaring
(F#)It was quite sca(B)rey!

(Em)Then I prayed and said,
"Dear Lord, help me (Am)not to be afraid!"
That (D)cat and I staring eye to eye
And (C)not a move was (B)made!
l (Em)wondered who'd be the first to quit,
But his (Am)look was too much to bear.
So (D)I instead went off to bed
To (C)get away from the (B)stare of...

The amazing (Em)cat! [Meow!] (B)
The amazing (Em)cat! [Meow!] (B)

(Am)Scientists cannot explain this,
How (Em)cats can read our minds.
But these a(Am)mazing things are happening
And (F#)you may meet some (B)time....

The amazing (Em)cat! [Meow!] (B)
The amazing (Em)cat! [Meow!] (B)
The amazing (Em)cat! [Meow!] (B)-(Em)
