Monster Mash (ver 3) by Bobby Pickett

Monster Mash
Bobby Pickett

      G
I was working in the lab late one night
        Em
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight 
       Am7
For my monster from his slab began to rise
    D
And suddenly to my surprise 

            G
[He did the mash]       He did the monster mash 
             Em
[The monster mash]      It was a graveyard smash 
            C
[He did the mash]       It caught on in a flash 
            D
[He did the mash]       He did the monster mash

        G
From my laboratory in the castle east 
       Em
To the master bedroom where the vampires feast 
    Am7
The ghouls all came from their humble abodes 
   D
To get a jolt from my electrodes 

              G
[They did the mash]     They did the monster mash 
             Em
[The monster mash]      It was a graveyard smash 
              C
[They did the mash]     It caught on in a flash 
              D
[They did the mash]     They did the monster mash

    C                            D
The zombies were having fun, the party had just begun 
    C                         D [tacet]
The guests included Wolf Man, Dracula and his son 

    G
The scene was rockin', all were digging the sounds 
Em
Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds 
    Am7
The Coffin-Bangers were about to arrive 
           D
With their vocal group, "The Crypt-Kicker Five" 

                 G
[They played the mash]  They played the monster mash 
             Em
[The monster mash]      It was a graveyard smash 
                 C
[They played the mash]  It caught on in a flash 
                 D
[They played the mash]  They played the monster mash

G
Out from his coffin, Drac's voice did ring 
Em
Seems he was troubled by just one thing 
   Am7
He opened the lid and shook his fist and said
D [tacet]
   "Whatever happened to my Transylvania twist?" 

              G
[It's now the mash]     It's now the monster mash 
             Em
[The monster mash]      And it's a graveyard smash 
              C
[It's now the mash]     It's caught on in a flash 
              D
[It's now the mash]     It's now the monster mash 

    G
Now everything's cool, Drac's a part of the band 
       Em
And my monster mash is the hit of the land 
    Am7
For you, the living, this mash was meant too 
         D [tacet]
When you get to my door, tell them Boris sent you 

              G
[Then you can mash]     Then you can monster mash 
             Em
[The monster mash]      And do my graveyard smash 
              C
[Then you can mash]     You'll catch on in a flash 
              D
[Then you can mash]     Then you can monster mash
