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

[CHORUS]
           G
He did the mash, he did the monster mash
             Em
The monster mash, it was a graveyard smash
          C
He did the mash, it caught on in a flash
            D
He did the mash, he did the monster mash

[VERSE]
            G
From my laboratory in the castle east
         Em
To the master bedroom where the vampires feast
      Am
The ghouls all came from their humble abodes
 D
To get a jolt from my electrodes

[CHORUS]
G                                       
They did the mash, they did the monster mash
             Em
The monster mash, it was a graveyard smash
             C
They did the mash, it caught on in a flash
              D
They did the mash, they did the monster mash

[BRIDGE]
    C
The zombies were having fun
      D
The party had just begun
      C
The guests included Wolfman,
D
Dracula, and his son

[VERSE]
 G
The scene was rockin', all were digging the sounds
Em
Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds
      C
The coffin-bangers were about to arrive
             D
With their vocal group, 'The Crypt-Kicker Five'

[CHORUS]
                G
They played the mash, they played the monster mash
              Em
The monster mash, it was a graveyard smash
                 C
They played the mash, it caught on in a flash
                 D
They played the mash, they played the monster mash

[VERSE]
G
Out from his coffin, Drac's voice did ring
Em
Seems he was troubled by just one thing
C
Opened the lid and shook his fist and said
D
"Whatever happened to my Transylvania Twist? "

[CHORUS]
               G
It's now the mash, it's now the monster mash
              Em
The monster mash, it was graveyard smash
              C
It's now the mash, it caught on in a flash
             D
It's now the mash, it's now the monster mash

[VERSE]
        G
Now everything's cool, Drac's a part of the band
       Em
And my Monster Mash is the hit of the land
      C
For you, the living, this mash was meant too
          D
When you get to my door, tell them Boris sent you

[CHORUS]
               G
Then you can mash, then you can monster mash
 Em
The monster mash, and do my graveyard smash
               C
Then you can mash, you'll catch on in a flash
               D                            G
Then you can mash, then you can monster mash
