Monkey On A String

Part 1 F# E I used to let it run saw that it was havin fun B Thought that it would get tired, but it only just begun F# E Now I'm annoyed with the species as it’s jumpin branch to branch B Or throw a little feces, or do a little dance F# E And my mind isn’t steady it’s just spinning like a top B Got tangents and they vanish into English or to Spanish F# E And it never feels finished, I can almost touch the Grail B The monkeys in a circle and he’s swallowin his tail Part 2 E He’s got his buddies in a barrel and their arms are locked B I try to get one but only get the whole lot E I see the claws and the fangs and the riots on the way B Lord what i wouldn’t give to get quiet for a day E Devouring itself but it can’t feel the sting B A And the thoughts keep on turnin till i think i thought of G# everything G Got to keep your monkey on a string Instrumental F# - E - B F# E I used to let it run saw that it was havin fun B Thought that it would get tired, but it only just begun F# E Now I'm annoyed with the species as it’s jumpin branch to branch B Or throw a little feces, or do a little dance F# E And my mind isn’t steady it’s just spinning like a top B Got tangents and they vanish into English or to Spanish F# E And it never feels finished, I can almost touch the Grail B The monkeys in a circle and he’s swallowin his tail Part 2 E He’s got his buddies in a barrel and their arms are locked B I try to get one but only get the whole lot E I see the claws and the fangs and the riots on the way B Lord what i wouldn’t give to get quiet for a day E Devouring itself but it can’t feel the sting B A And the thoughts keep on turnin till i think i thought of G# everything G Got to keep your monkey on a string E Meditate to make that Primate sing (Buddha, Buddha, Buddha!)
