Is the tallest living terrestrial animal
The giraffe
Lives between Chad and South Africa

They eat acacia leaves G D

They graze at heights other herbivores can't reach
C
They're preyed upon by lions yeah

Em D
And calves are hunted by leopards and wild dogs


The giraffe
Do not have strong social bond
Though giraffes

Do gather in loose aggregations

Males establish social hierarchy

By using their necks as weapons
C
Dominant males get mating access

And females raise the young


Giraffes

If I was a giraffe
G D
I'd mosey through the grass

G C D
Looking out upon the great savannah
I'd close my nostrils

Against sandstorms and the ants
My tongue would be bigger than a banana


If I were a giraffe
My neck would be 2 meters long
My regurgitation muscles

would be extra strong

And if I were a giraffe

I'd have a brain like a cow
My lungs would be quite small
But I'd get enough air anyhow
