E                              D
Tweeter and the monkey man were hard
 up for cash
A                               E
They Stayed up all night selling 
cocaine and hash.
E                            
To an undercover sop who had a 
  D
sister named Jan.
A                            E
For Reasons unexplained she loved 
the monkey man
E                              D
Tweeter was a boy scout coz he went 
to vietnam
A                         E
Found out the hard way nobody gives 
a damn
E                                 
They knew that they found freedom 
           D
just across the jersey line
A                              
So they hopped into a stolen car 
   E
took highway 99

E                      E D      
And the walls came down all the 
           D
way to hell
A                                  A
Never saw them when they're standing
E                            E
Never saw them when they fell

same chords as before
The undercover cop never liked the 
monkey man
Even back in highShcool  wanted to 
see him in the can
Jan got married at fourteen to a 
rackateer named bill
She made secret plans to the monkey 
man from a mansion on the hill



E                           D
It was out on Thunder Road, Tweeter 
at the wheel
A                                 
Pulled into paradise, you could hear
E
 the tires squeal
E                                 
It was Jan who'd told him many 
                  D
times "It was you to me who'd 
taught:
D                                 
In Kingston everything's legal as 
               A
long as you don't get caught"

E                      E
And the walls came down
D                  D
All the way to hell
A                               A
Never saw them when they standin
E                         E
Never saw them when they fell

E                              D
Some place by Riway prison they ran 
out of gas
A                              
The undercover cop cornered 'em, 
                         E
said "You didn't think that this 
could last"
E                           
Jan jumped up out of bed said 
                    D
"There's some place I gotta go"
A                                 
She took the gun out of the 
                E
drawer, and said "It's best that you
 don't know"
E                         D
An ambulance rolled up, State 
Trooper close behind
A                            D
Tweeter took his gun away and messed
 up his mind
E                              D
The undercover cop was found face 
down in a field
A                              
The Monkey Man was on the bridge 
       E
using Tweeter as a shield
E                     E
And the walls came down
A                  A
All the way to hell
D                               D
Never saw them when they standin
E                           E
Never saw them when they fell

same chords
The town of Jersey City is quieting 
down again
I'm sitting in a gambling club 
called The Lion's Den
The TV set is blown up, every bit of
 it is gone
Ever since the night when they 
showed that the Monkey Man was on
Maybe I'll go to Florida, get myself
 some sun
There ain't no more opportunity here
 and everythings been done
Sometimes I think of Tweeter, 
sometimes I think of Jan
Sometimes I don't think about 
nothin' but the Monkey Man
And the walls came down
All the way to hell
Never saw them when they standin
Never saw them when they fell
