Chords with lyrics

A minorAm
Here we come, walkin'
     FF
Down the street.
           D MajorD
We get the funniest looks from
       G+G
Every one we meet.

------------
[chorus]
           C majorC  C7C7
Hey, hey, we're the Monkees
  FF       G+G   C majorC   C7C7
And people say we monkey around.

  FF     G+G   C majorC   C7C7
But we're too busy singing
  FF    G+G  A minorAm
To put anybody down.

------------
         A minorAm
We go wherever we want to,
          FF
Do what we like to do
             D MajorD
We don't have time to get restless,
             G+G
There's always something new.

------------
[repeat chorus.. bur here ends on A, not A minorAm]
           C majorC  C7C7
Hey, hey, we're the Monkees
  FF       G+G   C majorC   C7C7
And people say we monkey around.

  FF     G+G   C majorC   C7C7
But we're too busy singing
  FF    G+G  A augmentedA
To put anybody down.

------------
              D MajorD   D7D7
We're just tryin' to be friendly,
G+G         A augmentedA     D MajorD  D7D7
Come and watch us sing and play,
G+G     A augmentedA     D MajorD  D7D7
We're the young generation,
G+G       A augmentedA      B minorBm
And we've got something to say.

------------

   A minorAm
Any time,
    FF
Or anywhere,
           D MajorD
Just look over your shoulder
             G+G
Guess who'll be standing there

------------

[chorus]
           C majorC  C7C7
Hey, hey, we're the Monkees
  FF       G+G   C majorC   C7C7
And people say we monkey around.

  FF     G+G   C majorC   C7C7
But we're too busy singing

To put anybody down.
