             (Doo d-d-d-doo doo doo)

(Verse 1):

So much for the city, 
Tell me that you'll dance 'til the end,
Just tell me that you'll dance 'til the end.

(Verse 2):

Hey hey you're The Monkeys,
And people said you monkeyed around,
But nobody's listening now. 

(Chorus):

C          F          Dm         G
Just don't go back to Big Sur,
Em         F       
Hanging around,
Em                   F
Lettin' your old man down,
C          F          Dm
Just don't go back to Big Sur,
G                        F
Baby, baby, please don't go,
G                          F
Oh baby, baby please don't go.

(Verse 3):

So much for the streetlights,
They're never gonna guide you home,
No they're never gonna guide you home.

(Verse 4):

Down at the steam boat show,
Yeah all the kids sart spittin',
I guess I didn't live up to the billing.

- repeat (Chorus) -
