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

Verse 3:

I got a monkey singing in my brain
I should have known already we're the same
Solo (G# Dur pentatonic)

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

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
