C                          G
Cool air falls through the venetian blinds
        Am                         F
And the planets in the heavens are perfectly aligned
            C
I take in my surroundings
  G
I memorize them all
    Am
The scuff marks on the stone floor,
    F
The powder burns on the eastern wall


         C              G
There's a monkey in the basement
Am                     F     (repeat second part of the intro)

The animal noises you used to make
Am             F
The andalusian coral snake
C                       G
All hail when standing beside this room
        Am                      F
And the heavy hot rains and the sonic boom


         C              G
There's a monkey in the basement
Am                        F    (repeat second part of intro)
