"Coconut" by Harry Nilsson, from the "Nilsson Schmilsson" album.
There is only one other posting that I found in Olga relating to
this song, which only contained the lyrics, and two chords, A7 and D7.
It contained no tablature.
Contrary to this, the chord of C7 was apparently used by
the attributed guitarist, Caleb Quaye (according to the album credits.)
A well-tuned guitar should come pretty close to matching the tone
when playing along with the actual recording. You may have to tweak
the tuning up or down a bit, depending on the 'speed' of the recording.
Throughout the entire song, only C7 is used. I certify that this is
my own work, and I have never seen any other work pertaining to
this music. This is my best impression of the arpeggio that
was used by Caleb Quaye:
C7
note: standard chord fingering for C7 is:

the arpeggio, both on the third fret.

(Move ring finger on left hand. It took me awhile
to train my finger to do this!)
If anyone can come up with a better arpeggio, let me know!
Enjoy!
