 Intro: Em G Em G Em G D C Em 
 
 Em G Em G 
 Monty this seems strange to me, the movies had that movie thing 
 Em G D A Em 
 But nonsense has a welcome ring and heros don't come easy 
 
 Em G Em G 
 Now nonsense isn't new to me, I know my head I know my feet 
 Em G D A Em D A Em 
 But mischief knocked me in the knees so just let go, just let go 
 
 Em G Em G 
 I saw the ocean meet the man, I saw you buried in the sand 
 Em G D A Em 
 A friend was there to hold my hand, so walk on by 
 
 Em G Em G 
 So I went walking through the stream, I saw you strung up in a tree 
 Em G D A Em D A Em 
 A woman out there said to me, said hold your tongue, hold your tongue 
 
 G D C Em G D C Em 
 you Don't owe me anything, you don't want this sympathy [waste your breath] 
 G D C D C Em 
 Don't you waste your breath [waste your breath] for the silver screen 
 
 Em G Em G 
 That nonsense doesn't mean a thing, they tried to bust you in a sting 
 Em G D A Em 
 But virtue isn't everything so don't waste time 
 
 Em G Em G 
 Now Here's a rhyme that you must hear, put this on your reel to reel 
 Em G D A Em D A Em 
 Mischief through a rotten deal, Monty's laying low, he is laying low 
 D A Em D A Em 
 Just let go, just let go 
 
 G D C Em G D C Em 
 you Don't owe me anything, you don't want this sympathy [waste your breath] 
 G D C G D C Em 
 Don't you waste your breath [waste your breath] Monty this seems strange to me
