Theme Songs - Television: Monster Mash guitar tab

{t:Monster Mash}

{st:Bobby "Boris" Pickett}

{st: written in G, tape slightly flatter}

(door creak; cauldron bubble; 4 bars drum intro)

I was [G]working in the lab late one night

When my [Em]eyes beheld an eerie sight

For my [C]monster from the slab began to rise

And [D]suddenly, to my surprise

{soc}

(He did the [G]mash) He did the Monster Mash

(The Monster [Em]Mash) It was a graveyard smash

(He did the [C]mash) It caught on in a flash

(He did the [D]mash) He did the Monster Mash

{eoc}

>From my [G]laboratory in the Castle East

To the [Em]Master Bedroom where the vampires feast

The [C]ghouls all came from their humble abode

To [D]get a jolt from my electrode

{soc}

(And do the [G]mash) And do the Monster Mash

(The monster [Em]mash) And do my graveyard smash

(To do the [C]mash) They caught on in a flash

(To do the [D]mash) To do the monster mash

{eoc}

The [G]scene was rocking all were digging the sound

[Em]Igor on chains backed by His Baying Hounds

The [C]Coffin Bangers were about to arrive

With their [D]vocal group, the Crypt Kicker Five

{c:Bridge}

The [C]Zombies were having fun (In-a-shoop-wha-ooo)

The [D]party had just begun (In-a-shoop-wha-ooo)

The [C]guests included WolfMan (In-a-shoop-wha-oooSTOP)

[D]Dracula and his son (Drum fill)

[G]Out from his coffin Drac's voice did ring

It [Em]seems he was worried 'bout just one thing

[C]Opened the lid and shook his fist, and said

[D]"Whatever hoppened to my Transylvania Tvist?"

{soc}

(It's now the [G]mash) It's now the Monster Mash

(The monster [Em]mash) And it's a graveyard smash

(It's now the [C]mash) It's caught on in a flash

(It's now the [D]mash) It's now the Monster Mash

{eoc}

Now [G]everything's cool, Drac's a part of the band

And my [Em]Monster Mash, it's the hit of the land

For [C]you, the living, this Mash was meant, too

When you [D]get to my door, tell them Boris sent you

{soc}

(And you can [G]Mash) And you can Monster Mash

(The monster [Em]mash) And do my graveyard Smash

(And you can [C]Mash) You'll catch on in a flash

(Then you can [D]Mash) Then you can Monster Mash

{eoc}

(I - II - IV - V verse instr fade with Boris & Igor talkover)

Igor: MMMM...Mash goooood! Mash goood!

Boris: Down Igor, you impetuous young boy.

Igor: Mash goooood, etc.

Enjoy!
