[Intro]  Bm  G  A

Bm
I was in the wild
                 G       A
Living life from tree to tree
       Bm
So I learned a simple song
              G     A
And sang in a jamboree

        Bm
And the people came and cheered
                     G       A
I thought that I was finally free
          Bm
Till they sold me to a man
                G        A
Who had another plan for me

         Bm
He said: Dance monkey, dance (dance monkey)
                  G   A
Play that song I know
         Bm
He said: Dance monkey, dance (dance monkey)
                G   A
In this yellow coat

Bm
Dance, dance, dance monkey
Dance, dance, dance monkey
Dance, dance, dance monkey

Bm
Saved up just enough
                G     A
Enough to buy a new guitar
       Bm
And I wrote a simple song
                  G     A
An honest message from my heart

       Bm
When I sang it to the crowd
                G     A
It was not the same applause
        Bm
I could hear them screaming out
                 G     A
You know what we came here for

         Bm
He said: Dance monkey, dance (dance monkey)
                  G   A
Play that song I know
         Bm
He said: Dance monkey, dance (dance monkey)
                G   A
In this yellow coat

( G  Em  D  F# )

Bm
Dance, dance, dance monkey

( G  Em  D  F# )

Bm                              Bm  D  G  F#
Dance, dance, dance monkey

Bm
It doesn't matter what the people say
                         G
You can take my house way
Cause I know that I'll never be, no
A
Dance, dance, dance monkey

Bm
It doesn't matter what the people say
                         G
You can take my house way

Dance, dance, dance monkey

Bm                         G  A
Dance monkey, dance monkey
Bm                         G  A
Dance monkey, dance monkey
Bm                         G  A
Dance monkey, dance monkey
Bm                         G  A  Bm
Dance monkey, dance monkey
