Am Am G  Am Am G


[Verse 1]
Am  Am G                  Am   Am G
All he wanted was a lady, when at night he came up from the deep
Am Am  G                             Am Am    G
He was feeling like any other lonely fella, decided to take one while the city was asleep


[Pre-Chorus]
    D   C        G          C                       G
The unsuspecting maiden was clutched from where she lay
    D      C        G                   C                   D
And taken away to a home down under the waters of the local bay


[Chorus]
       C                                 G
By the Creature from the Black Lagoon-a, strange to see him back so soon
      C                                              D                 G
After his last intended did the dirty on him, didn't last five minutes in the swim
         C                                    G
With the Creature from the Black Lagoon-a, be seeing him again real soon
      C                                  D                      G
After this intended lets him down, won't last five minutes with him around


[Verse 2]
Am Am G                          Am    Am G
On-ly surfaced for a companion, 'cause of that he's never been seen
Am   Am G                                   Am Am        G
Just a  big look written in the eyes of his ba by, and a cry of terror, a honeymoon scream


[Pre-Chorus]
    D   C        G               C                       G
The unsuspecting maiden, will be clutched from where she sleeps
    D      C        G                   C                     D
And taken away to a home down under the water, and that's for keeps


[Chorus]
       C                                 G
By the Creature from the Black Lagoon-a, strange to see him back so soon
      C                                              D                 G
After his last intended did the dirty on him, didn't last five minutes in the swim


[Instrumental]
Am Am G  Am Am G
Am Am G  Am Am G


[Pre-Chorus]
    D   C        G               C                       G
The unsuspecting maiden, will be clutched from where she sleeps
    D      C        G                   C                    D
And taken away to a home down under the water and that's for keeps


[Chorus]
       C                                 G
By the Creature from the Black Lagoon-a, strange to see him back so soon
      C                                              D                 G
After his last intended did the dirty on him, didn't last five minutes in the swim
         C                                    G
With the Creature from the Black Lagoon-a, be seeing him again real soon
      C                                  D                      G
After this intended lets him down, won't last five minutes with him around


[Chorus]
       C                                 G
By the Creature from the Black Lagoon-a, strange to see him back so soon
      C                                              D                 G
After his last intended did the dirty on him, didn't last five minutes in the swim
         C                                    G
With the Creature from the Black Lagoon-a, be seeing him again real soon
      C                                  D                      G
After this intended lets him down, won't last five minutes with him around...
