[Verse 1] [G] I was working in the lab late one night, When my [Em] eyes beheld an eerie sight. For my [C] monster from his slab began to rise, And [D] suddenly to my surprise.
[Chorus] He did the [G] mash, he did the monster mash. The monster [Em] mash, it was a graveyard smash. He did the [C] mash, it caught on in a flash. He did the [D] mash, he did the monster mash.
[Verse 2] From my [G] laboratory in the castle east, To the [Em] master bedroom where the vampires feast. The [C] ghouls all came from their humble abodes, To [D] catch a jolt from my electrodes.
[Chorus] He did the [G] mash, he did the monster mash. The monster [Em] mash, it was a graveyard smash. He did the [C] mash, it caught on in a flash. He did the [D] mash, he did the monster mash.
[Chorus 2] The [C] zombies were having fun..The [D] party had just begun. The [C] guests included Wolf Man.. [D] Dracula and his son.
[Verse 3] The [G] scene was rockin', all were digging the sounds, [Em] Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds. The [C] Coffin-Bangers were about to arrive, With their [D] vocal group, "The Crypt-Kicker Five."
[Chorus] He did the [G] mash, he did the monster mash. The monster [Em] mash, it was a graveyard smash. He did the [C] mash, it caught on in a flash. He did the [D] mash, he did the monster mash.
[Verse 4] [G] Out from his coffin, Drac's voice did ring. [Em] Seems he was troubled by just one thing. He [C] opened the lid and shook his fist, And [D] said, "Whatever happened to my Transylvanian Twist?"
[Chorus] It's now the [G] mash..It's now the monster mash. The monster [Em] mash..and it's a graveyard smash. It's now the [C] mash..It caught on in a flash. It's now the [D] mash..It's now the monster mash.
[Verse 5] Now [G] everything's cool, Drac's a part of the band, And my [Em] monster mash is the hit of the land. For [C] you, the living, this mash was meant too, When [D] you get to my door, tell them Boris sent you.
[Chorus] X2 Then you can [G] mash..then you can monster mash. The monster [Em] mash..And do my graveyard smash. Then you can [C] mash..You'll catch on in a flash, Then you can [D] mash..Then you can monster mash.
[Verse] [D] Didn't I make you [G] feel [A] Like [G] you were the [D] only man? [G][A][G] [D] Didn't I give you [G] everything a woman [A] possibly can? [A]
[Pre-Chorus] [Bm] But with all the love I give you [A] it's never enough [C] I'm gonna show you baby that a [A] woman can be tough So [A] come on, [A] come on, [A] come on, [A] come on
[Chorus] [D] (take it) Take a [G] nother little piece of my [A] heart, now baby [A] [D] (break it) Break a [G] nother little bit of my [A] heart, now honey [A] [D] (have a) Have a [G] nother little piece of my [A] heart now, baby [A] (descend A G# G) [G] You know you've got it if it [G] makes [A] you [G] feel [D] good
[Verse] [D] Yeah, out on the [G] street [A] And you [G] know [D] deep down in your [G] heart that ain't [A] right [G] [D] I know you [G] never never hear me [A] when I cry at [A] night
[Pre-Chorus] [Bm] I tell myself that I [A] can't stand the pain But when you [C] hold me in your arms I [A] say it again So [A] come on, [A] come on, [A] come on, [A] come on and
[Chorus] [D] (take it) Take a [G] nother little piece of my [A] heart, now baby [A] [D] (break it) Break a [G] nother little bit of my [A] heart, now honey [A] [D] (have a) Have a [G] nother little piece of my [A] heart now, baby [A] (descend A G# G) [G] You know you've got it if it [G] makes [A] you [G] feel [D] good You'd better
