C                          G
Cool air falls through the venetian blinds

        Am                         F
And the planets in the heavens are perfectly aligned

            C
I take in my surroundings

  G
I memorize them all

    Am
The scuff marks on the stone floor,

    F
The powder burns on the eastern wall

         C              G
There's a monkey in the basement

C                       G
There's a monkey in the basement

Am                        F
Where did the monkey come from?

                          C
Where did the monkey come from?

                          G
Where did the monkey come from?

C                    G
The animal noises you used to make

Am             F
The andalusian coral snake

C                       G
All hail when standing beside this room

        Am                      F
And the heavy hot rains and the sonic boom

         C              G
There's a monkey in the basement

C                       G
There's a monkey in the basement

Am                     F
How did the monkey get there?

                       C
How did the monkey get there?

                       G
How did the monkey get there?
