Fire Coming Out Of The Monkey's Head

[Verse 1]
[Am]Once upon a time
at the foot of a great mountain
There was a town
where the people known as happy folk lived
Their very existence a mystery
to the rest of the world
Obscured, as [F]it was, by great [Am]clouds
Here they played out their peaceful lives
Innocent of the litany of excess and violence
that was growing in the world [G]below
To live in harmony
with the [Am]spirit of the mountain

[Chorus 1]
called Monkey was enough
[Am]Then one day,[E]
[F]strange folk [E]arrived in the town
[F]They came in camoufla[E]ge
hidden be[A]hind dark glasses,
but no one noticed [F]them
They only [E]saw [C]shadows, you see,
[G]without the truth to the eye[F]s
The happy folk were [E]blind

[Bridge 1]
[Am]Falling out of [G]aeroplanes
and [Am]hi ding out in h[G]oles
[Am]Waiting for the [G]sunset to come,
[Am]people going [G]home
[Am]Jump out from be[G]hind them
and [Am]shoot them in the [G]head
Now [Am]everybody [G]dancing
the [Am]dance of the [G]dead
The [Am]dance of the [G]dead,
the [Am]dance [G]of the dea[Am]d[G]

[Verse 2]
[Am]In time, the strange folk found their way
into the higher reaches of the mountain
[F]And it was there
that they found the caves
[Am]of unimaginable sincerity and beauty
By chance, they stumbled upon the place
where [G]all good souls come to [Am]rest

[Chorus 2]
The strange folk, they [Am]coveted the jewels
in [E]these caves above all [F]things
And [E]soon they began to [F]mine the mountain
[E]It's rich sea[Am]m
fueling the chaos of their own [F]world[E]
Mean[C]while, down in the [G]town,
[F]the happy folk slept restlessly
Their [E]dreams invaded by shadowy
figures digging [Am]away at their souls

[Verse 3]
[Am]Every day, people would wake
and stare at the mountain
Why was it bringing
darkness into their lives?
[Am]And as the strange folk
mined deeper and deeper into the mountain
Holes began [F]to appear
Bringing with them a [Am]cold and bitter wind
that chilled the very soul of the Monkey
For the first time, the happy folk felt fearful
For [G]they knew that soon
the monkey would stir from [Am]it's deep sleep

[Verse 4]
Then there came a [Am]sound, distant first,
that grew into castrophany so immense
That it could be heard far away in space
There were no [Am]screams, there was no time
The mountain called Monkey had spoken
There was only fire, and then
Nothing

[Outro 1]
Oh [Am]little town in [E]USA,
the [F]time has come to [Em]see
There's [F]nothing you be[Em]lieve you [A]want
But [F]where were [E]you
[C]when it all came [G]down on [F]me?[E]
Did you call me out?
