Run Red Run Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Oh, Red went and bought
himself a monkey
Got [G]him from a pawn shop
[Gm]broker[G][Gm]
[G]He [D]taught that [E]mon[A]key
how [D]to guzzle beer
And he taught him out to play stud poker
Last [Dm]night when they [D]were gambling
in the [Dm]kitchen[D]
The mon[G]key he was
taking a beating
The mon[A]key said Red,
"I'm going to shoot [G]you dead
Because I [D]know that well,
you been a cheating"

[Verse 2]
[D]Well, run, Red, run,
because he's got your gun
And he's aim[Dm]ing it at [D]your head
[G](boogedy-boogedy-boo[Gm]gedy)
Run Red run, because he's got your gun
And [D]he's aim[Dm]ing it at [D]your
head (boogedy)
You bet[Ab]ter get up and wail
You bet[G]ter move your tail before
he [D]fills it full of [F#]lead

[Verse 3]
[F#]Oh, [D]Red jumped up and started
to move like [G]a P80-Saber Jet
[D]He zoomed [E]around [A]the [E]corner
, and [D]he dis[G]appeared
And everybody started [D]to stare
The race was on,
[C#]you know the chase was on
[G]And Red he sure could run
But, let me [A]tell you sport,
don't sell that mon[G]key short
'Cause he's a trav[D]eling son-of-a-gun

[Verse 4]
Well, Well, [D]Well, Well, run, Red, run,
because he's got your gun
And he's aiming it at your [G]head
(boogedy-boogedy-[Gdim]boogedy)
Run Red run, because [G]he's got your gun
And he's aim[D]ing it at your
head (boogedy)
[G]You bet[Ab]ter get up and wail
You better move [G]your tail [Gm]before [G]he [F#]fills it
full of [D]lead

[Verse 5]
Monkey trapped Red in [D]a parking a lot
[G]Down along the avenue
[E]The monkey said, "Red,
you've made [G]a man out of me
Now I'm going [D]to make a
monkey out [G]of you[D]
Give me your car [Dm]keys,
[C#]give me yo[D]ur walle[Dm]t[D]
Give [G]'em to me, or I'll shoot
[A]I'm gonna to put on your
brand new Stet[G]son hat
And go to town in [D]your new brown suit"

[Verse 6]
[D]Well, run, Red, run,
because he's got your gun
And [C#]he's aiming it [D]at your [F#]head[G]
[F#](boogedy-boogedy-booge[G]dy)
Run, Red run, because he's got your gun
And [D]he's aiming it [C#]at your
head [D](boogedy)
[Ab]You better get up and wail
You better move [G]your tail before
he [D]fills it full of lead
