(verse 1)
          E5           D5                 E5          B5
There's a monster that lives ?neath your bed, Oh for crying out loud
       E5           D5              E5           B5
it's a futon on the floor, He must be flat as a board
          E5            D5                E5       B5
There's a creature that lurks behind the door
            E5               D5             E5            B5

(intro)
Though I've checked there 15 times, When I leave then he arrives Every night

(verse 2)
Tell the monster that lives ?neath your bed
To go somewhere else instead, Or you'll kick him in the head
Tell the creature that lurks behind the door
If he knows what's good he won't come here anymore
             E5                      B5        D5
Cause you'll kick in his butt at the count of four

(chorus)
G5               D5           C5     D5
Goodnight demon slayer, goodnight
G5       D5       C5                D5
Now its time to close your tired eyes
          G5                  D5                  C5                         D5
There are devils to slay and dragons to ride If they see you coming, hell they better hide
G5              D5          C5     D5
Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
G5                   D5          C5      D5    Intro
Goodnight my little slayer goodnight

(verse 3)
Tell the monster that eats children, that you taste bad
And you're sure you'd be the worst that he's ever had
If he eats you, don't fret, just cut him open with an axe
Don't regret it, he deserved it, he's a cad

(verse 4)
Tell the harpies that land on your bed post
That at the count of five you'll roast them alive
Tell the devil its time you gave him his due
He should go back to hell, he should shake in his shoes
          C5                    D5
Cause the mightiest, scariest, creature is you

(chorus)

(verse 5)
I won't tell you, there's nothing ?neath your bed
I won't tell you, that it's all in your head
This world of ours is not as it seems
The monsters are real but not in your dreams
Learn what you can from the beasts you defeat,
       C5                       D5
you'll need it for some of the people you meet

(chorus)

(outro)
G5              D5          C5      D5
Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
    G5     D5    C5    D5    end on E5
Goodnight
