This monkey's no friend of mine

I try to act straight but he's on cloud number nine

He's got a cup made of tin

And it's 'cause of him you won't let me in

verse 2:

| G#5 | C#5 | F5 C#5 | F5 D#5 | 2x

He bangs a drum so i can get no sleep

Well he's a monkey but he can't be beat

Bridge (same as before)

Head over heels on banana peel

I'm getting confused as to what i feel

And every time i try to speak

He always puts his monkeytongue in my cheek

Chorus:

| C5 | F5(I) | A#5 | D#5 |

| C5 | F5(I) | C#5 | D#5 |

Oh my my - i'd do anything to make him die

But then i see there's nothing i can do

The monkey's just a part of me

Lead guitar:

Verse 3:

I got a monkey singing in my brain

I should have known already we're the same

Chorus (Same lead as before):

| C5 | F5(I) | A#5 | D#5 |

| C5 | F5(I) | C#5 | D#5 |

Oh my my - i'd do anything to make him die

But then i see there's nothing i can do

The monkey's just a part of me

Verse 4:

| G#5 | C#5 | F5 C#5 | F5 D#5 | 2x

I got some monkey business to attend

I think i'll ask him if he'd hold my hand

Bridge

And ask him to be a friend of mine

Together we'll fly up to cloud number nine

And share his cup made of tin

Maybe then you'd like to let us in

Chorus

| C5 | F5(I) | A#5 | D#5 |

| C5 | F5(I) | C#5 | D#5 |

Oh my my - i did everything to make him die

But now i see there's nothing ican do

The monkey's just a part of me

Outro:

| G#5 | C#5 | F5 C#5 | F5 D#5 | G#5...

I got some monkey business to attend
