Verse 1
(A minor) Once upon a time
at the foot of a great mountain
There was a town
where the people known as happy folk lived
Their very existence a mystery
to the rest of the world
Obscured, as (F major) it was, by great clouds (A minor)
Here they played out their peaceful lives
Innocent of the litany of excess and violence
that was growing in the world (G major) below
To live in harmony
with the (A minor) spirit of the mountain
Chorus 1
called Monkey was enough
(A minor) Then one (E major) day,
(F major) strange folk arrived (E major) in the town
(F major) They came in camou (E major) flage
hidden be (A major) hind dark glasses,
but no one noticed (F major) them
They only (E major) saw shadows, (C major) you see,
(G major) without the truth to the (F major) eyes
The happy folk were blind (E major)

Bridge 1
(A minor) Falling out of aero (G major) planes
and hi (A minor) ding out in holes (G major)
(A minor) Waiting for the sun (G major) set to come,
(A minor) people going home (G major)
(A minor) Jump out from behind (G major) them
and (A minor) shoot them in the head (G major)
Now (A minor) everybody dan (G major) cing
the dance (A minor) of the dead (G major)
The dance (A minor) of the dead, (G major)
the dance (A minor) (G major) of the dead (A minor) (G major)
Interlude 1
(A minor) (G major) (A minor) (G major)
(A minor) (G major) (A minor) (G major)
Verse 2
(A minor) In time, the strange folk found their way
into the higher reaches of the mountain
(F major) And it was there
that they found the caves
(A minor) of unimaginable sincerity and beauty
By chance, they stumbled upon the place
where all (G major) good souls come to rest (A minor)
Chorus 2
The strange folk, they coveted (A minor) the jewels
in these (E major) caves above all (F major) things
And (E major) soon they began to mine (F major) the mountain
(E major) It's rich seam (A minor)
fueling the chaos of their own (F major) world (E major)
Mean (C major) while, down in the (G major) town,
(F major) the happy folk slept restlessly
Their (E major) dreams invaded by shadowy
figures digging (A minor) away at their souls
Verse 3
(A minor) Every day, people would wake
and stare at the mountain
Why was it bringing
darkness into their lives?
(A minor) And as the strange folk
mined deeper and deeper into the mountain
Holes began to (F major) appear
Bringing with them a cold (A minor) and bitter wind
that chilled the very soul of the Monkey
For the first time, the happy folk felt fearful
For (G major) they knew that soon
the monkey would stir from it's (A minor) deep sleep
Verse 4
Then there came a (A minor) sound, distant first,
that grew into castrophany so immense
That it could be heard far away in space
There were no (A minor) screams, there was no time
The mountain called Monkey had spoken
There was only fire, and then
Nothing
Outro 1
Oh (A minor) little town in (E major) USA,
the time (F major) has come to (E minor) see
There's (F major) nothing you be (E minor) lieve you (A major) want
But (F major) where were (E major) you
(C major) when it all came (G major) down on (F major) me? (E major)
Did you call me out?
