A                     F#m
Well every trick in the book
                 E
That you want to play
A                       F#m
You'd better have a good answer
            E
To get your way
D                           Bm
'cause all the tricks that you pulled
A                    F#m
And all the people you fooled,
E
Well you you started something

A                       F#m
Well all the people that liked you
             E
Just went on home
A                            F#m
And when they could of stood by you,
          E
You stood alone
D                       Bm
'cause all the people you fooled
A                    F#m
And all the people you took
E
Well you started something

B                         A
And all the signs in your head
G               Bm
Call out you're dead
B                          A
But all the preachers went home
G             Bm
And left you alone

         Dm           C     E
Aaaaaaaaah, aaaaaaaaaah

A                    F#m
And all the women that liked you,
           E
You fooled around
A                   F#m
And when you got them inside you,
           E
You turned them down
D                      Bm
'cause all the women you fooled
A                    F#m
And all the women you took
         E
Well you started something

B                         A
And all the lines in your head
G               Bm
Call out you're dead
B                         A
And all the teachers went home
G             Bm
And left you alone

         Dm           C     E
Aaaaaaaaah, aaaaaaaaaah

A
Monkeys to the left,
F#m                      E
Monkeys feeling right at home
A
Too many people,
F#m               E
Too many walking alone
D
And though they say
           Bm
They don't like it
A                        F#m
You know they really don't mind
               E
If you started something

Started something

B                         A
But all the signs in your head
G               Bm
Call out you're dead
B                         A
And all the teachers went home
G               Bm
And left you alone

         Dm           C     E
Aaaaaaaaah, aaaaaaaaaah
