[Verse 1]
        Am                     F
Here we come, walking down the street,
                    D                         G7
We get the funniest looks from ...everyone we meet!

Hey, Hey, we're The Monkees,

And people say we monkey a - round,
    F         G    C       C7    F         G    Am
But we're too busy singing ...to put any - body down!
 
[Verse 2]

There's always something new!

And people say we monkey a - round,

But we're too busy singing ...to put any - body down!

           A7           D
We're just trying to be friendly,
   G                 A7       D
A- Come and watch us sing and play,
G         A7           D
We're the young gene - ration,
    G         A7           B             E4
And we've got something to say!  Aghhh!
 
[Verse 4]
      Am             F                          D
Any - time, or any - where, just look over your shoulder,
                         G7
Guess who'll be standing there?
 
[Chorus]
                    C         C7
Hey, Hey, we're The Monkees,
    F             G          C       C7
And people say we monkey a - round,

But we're too busy singing ...to put any - body down!
