from a mansion on the hill

you could hear the tires squeal

a state trooper close behind

Verse 4
The town of Kansas City,
D
is quieting down again
A
I'm sitting in a gambling club
E
called The Lion's Den
The TV set is blown up,
D
every bit of it is gone

Ever since the night when they showed
E
that the Monkey Man was on
Maybe I'll go to Florida,
D
get myself some sun
A
There ain't no more opportunity here
E
and everything's been done
Sometimes I think of Tweeter,
D
sometimes I think of Jan
A
Sometimes I don't think
E
about nothing but the Monkey Man
