Bobby Boris Pickett, Monster Mash (1962)
^{Key: :[F#] (w: Bobby Pickett, Leonard L. Capizzi)}

VERSE 1:
I was [F#] working in the lab late one night
When my [D#m] eyes beheld an eerie sight
For my [B] monster from the slab began to rise
And [C#] suddenly, to my surprise

CHORUS 1:
He did the [F#] mash; He did the Monster Mash
The Monster [D#m] Mash; It was a graveyard smash
He did the [B] mash; It caught on in a flash
He did the [C#] mash; He did the Monster Mash

VERSE 2:
From my [F#] laboratory in the Castle East
To the [D#m] Master Bedroom where the vampires feast
The [B] ghouls all came from their humble abode
To [C#] get a jolt from my electrode

CHORUS 2:
And do the [F#] mash; And do the Monster Mash
The monster [D#m] mash; And do my graveyard smash
To do the [B] mash; They caught on in a flash
To do the [C#] mash; To do the monster mash

VERSE 3:
The [F#] scene was rocking all were digging the sound
[D#m] Igor on chains backed by His Baying Hounds
The [B] Coffin Bangers were about to arrive
With their [C#] vocal group, the Crypt Kicker Five

BRIDGE:
The [B] Zombies were having fun; In-a-shoop-wha-ooo
The [C#] party had just begun; In-a-shoop-wha-ooo
The [B] guests included Wolfman; In-a-shoop-wha-ooo STOP
[C#] Dracula and his son.. (Drum fill)

VERSE 4:
[F#] Out from his coffin Drac's voice did ring
It [D#m] seems he was worried 'bout just one thing
[B] Opened the lid and shook his fist, and said
[C#] "Whatever hoppened to my Transylvania Tvist?"

CHORUS 3:
It's now the [F#] mash; It's now the Monster Mash
The monster [D#m] mash; And it's a graveyard smash
It's now the [B] mash; It's caught on in a flash
It's now the [C#] mash; It's now the Monster Mash

VERSE 5:
Now [F#] everything's cool, Drac's a part of the band
And my [D#m] Monster Mash, it's the hit of the land
For [B] you, the living, this Mash was meant, too
When you [C#] get to my door, tell them Boris sent you

CHORUS 4:
And you can [F#] Mash; And you can Monster Mash
The monster [D#m] mash; And do my graveyard Smash
And you can [B] Mash; You'll catch on in a flash
Then you can [C#] Mash; Then you can Monster Mash
