Bobby Boris Pickett, Monster Mash (1962)
^{Key: :[G] (w: Bobby Pickett, Leonard L. Capizzi)}

VERSE 1:
I was [G] working in the lab late one night
When my [Em] eyes beheld an eerie sight
For my [C] monster from the slab began to rise
And [D] suddenly, to my surprise

CHORUS 1:
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 abode
To [D] get a jolt from my electrode

CHORUS 2:
And do the [G] mash; And do the Monster Mash
The monster [Em] mash; And do my graveyard smash
To do the [C] mash; They caught on in a flash
To do the [D] mash; To do the monster mash

VERSE 3:
The [G] scene was rocking all were digging the sound
[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

BRIDGE:
The [C] Zombies were having fun; In-a-shoop-wha-ooo
The [D] party had just begun; In-a-shoop-wha-ooo
The [C] guests included Wolfman; In-a-shoop-wha-ooo STOP
[D] Dracula and his son.. (Drum fill)

VERSE 4:
[G] Out from his coffin Drac's voice did ring
It [Em] seems he was worried 'bout just one thing
[C] Opened the lid and shook his fist, and said
[D] "Whatever hoppened to my Transylvania Tvist?"

CHORUS 3:
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's 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, it's the hit of the land
For [C] you, the living, this Mash was meant, too
When you [D] get to my door, tell them Boris sent you

CHORUS 4:
And you can [G] Mash; And you can Monster Mash
The monster [Em] mash; And do my graveyard Smash
And you can [C] Mash; You'll catch on in a flash
Then you can [D] Mash; Then you can Monster Mash
