D7          G7                    A7
The fortune teller looked into my eyeballs

D7                  G7            A7
The wrinkles on her face about to crack

         D7
She said, You best believe it

You ain't goin' nowhere

If you put it in a spoon man I would boot it

B7                                            E7
Some king whose mental house was just a shack

Where do you draw the line when all your friends are dyin'

You got to get that monkey off your back

D7                   G7                  A7
Your crystal ball is where you chase the dragon

              D7          G7                    A7
She said, now, bring me home his head inside a sack

    D7                G7                 A7
But now you find your crystal balls are dragging

D7              G7              E7
Got to get that monkey off your back
