Monster Mash
Bobby Pickett

   G+G
I was working in the lab late one night
    E minorEm
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
    Am7Am7
For my monster from his slab began to rise
  D MajorD
And suddenly to my surprise

      G+G
[He did the mash]    He did the monster mash
       E minorEm
[The monster mash]   It was a graveyard smash
      C majorC
[He did the mash]    It caught on in a flash
      D MajorD
[He did the mash]    He did the monster mash

    G+G
From my laboratory in the castle east
    E minorEm
To the master bedroom where the vampires feast
  Am7Am7
The ghouls all came from their humble abodes
  D MajorD
To get a jolt from my electrodes

       G+G
[They did the mash]   They did the monster mash
       E minorEm
[The monster mash]   It was a graveyard smash
       C majorC
[They did the mash]   It caught on in a flash
       D MajorD
[They did the mash]   They did the monster mash

  C majorC              D MajorD
The zombies were having fun, the party had just begun
  C majorC             D MajorD [tacet]
The guests included Wolf Man, Dracula and his son

  G+G
The scene was rockin', all were digging the sounds
E minorEm
Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds
  Am7Am7
The Coffin-Bangers were about to arrive
      D MajorD
With their vocal group, "The Crypt-Kicker Five"

         G+G
[They played the mash] They played the monster mash
       E minorEm
[The monster mash]   It was a graveyard smash
         C majorC
[They played the mash] It caught on in a flash
         D MajorD
[They played the mash] They played the monster mash

G+G
Out from his coffin, Drac's voice did ring
E minorEm
Seems he was troubled by just one thing
  Am7Am7
He opened the lid and shook his fist and said
D MajorD [tacet]
  "Whatever happened to my Transylvania twist?"

       G+G
[It's now the mash]   It's now the monster mash
       E minorEm
[The monster mash]   And it's a graveyard smash
       C majorC
[It's now the mash]   It's caught on in a flash
       D MajorD
[It's now the mash]   It's now the monster mash

  G+G
Now everything's cool, Drac's a part of the band
    E minorEm
And my monster mash is the hit of the land
  Am7Am7
For you, the living, this mash was meant too
     D MajorD [tacet]
When you get to my door, tell them Boris sent you

       G+G
[Then you can mash]   Then you can monster mash
       E minorEm
[The monster mash]   And do my graveyard smash
       C majorC
[Then you can mash]   You'll catch on in a flash
       D MajorD
[Then you can mash]   Then you can monster mash
