[Verse 1]
Cool air falls through [D]the
venetian blinds and
[Em]The planets in the heavens
are per[C]fectly aligned
I take in my [G]surroundings
I [D]memorize them all
The scuff [Em]marks on the stone floor,
The [C]powder burns on
the eastern wall

[Verse 2]
There's [G]a monkey in the basem[D]ent
[Em]How did the monkey get there[C]?[G]
There's a monkey in the base[D]ment
[Em]Where did the monkey come from?
[C]Where did the monkey come from?
[G]Where did the monkey come

[Verse 3]
[G]The animal noises you[D] used to make
[Em]The andalusian coral[C] snake
All [G]hail when standing be
[D]side this room
And the [Em]heavy hot rains and
[C]the sonic boom

[Verse 4]
There's [G]a monkey in the basem[D]ent
[Em]Where did the monkey come [C]from?[G]
There's a monkey in the base[D]ment
[Em]How did the monkey get there?
[C]How did the monkey get there?
[G]How did the monkey get there?
