Monkey

  Gm


[Verse]
      Eb                F                Gm
Then Whitesnake and lightning bolt
              Eb          F            Gm
Compels us to move to another juke joint
 Eb         F              Gm
Can’t blame it all on the moon
   Eb                  F              Gm              Gm
The mess of words that tumble onto you


[Pre Chorus]
        Eb
Because love breaks
 F
Love breaks
 Gm
Love breaks your heart
         Eb
Because love breaks
 F                Gm
Love breaks your heart


[Chorus]
Eb         F                        Gm
Lately, I do nothing but listen to my body
  Eb           F                 Gm
And I got no designs to do you harm
       Eb         F
Oooh, baby, it’s on
        Gm                   Gm
I’ll be sweet and simple all night long


[Post Chorus]
Eb
Pull my hair
F
Smack my ass
Gm                 Gm
Make me your monkey

Eb                  F
Ooh
Gm
Ooh
      Eb         F            Gm
Ooooooh          Ooh


[Verse 2]
  Bb                                     Gm
Some splendid Sunday morning, I’ll forget you
                Eb               Gm
And you will tumble from my brain
         F              Gm
Like a drifter from a train
         Eb               Gm
I will feel myself getting better
          F             Gm
As I find myself growing bold
         Eb                   Gm
Comforted by the drone of my mantra
          F             Gm           Eb
Though I will confess to a measure of loneliness
      F            Gm
That follows me down
     Cm             Cm
To the south side of town


[Chorus 2]

Eb             F                   Gm
Lately, I do nothing but listen to my body
    Eb         F                 Gm
And I got no designs to do you harm
      Eb       F
Oooh, baby, it’s on


[Bridge]
    Cm                    F
In my dream, there’s a beach and there’s lightning
       Bb               Eb         Gm
And I fall under your spell like a dog
          Cm             F
Oooh, in my dream, you warn me
          Bb            Eb
And we three make our escape
          Bb                   Gm
From some beast with a horrible face
     Cm
Who gains on us
                         F            F
Until eventually we are overcome


[Pre Chorus]
           Eb          F
Oooh, then baby…
    Gm
I feel nothin’
       Eb               F
Oooh, tell me, tell me, mama
         Gm
How did it happen?
  Eb              F
Oooh, baby, it’s on
Gm
I’ll be sweet and simple all night long
       Eb
Pull my hair
   F
Smack my ass
         Gm               Gm
Make me your monkey
       Eb
Pull my hair
   F
Smack my ass
    Gm
Make me your monkey
       Eb
Pull my hair!
F
Smack my ass!
     Gm
Make me your monkey!

  Eb                 F
Ooh
  Gm
   Ooh
       Eb            F
Ooooooooh          Ooh
Gm
Ooh!
