Am G Tweeter and the monkey man were hard up for cash
F Am They stayed up all night selling cocaine and hash
G To an undercover cop who had a sister named jan
F Am For reasons unexplained she loved the monkey man
Am G Tweeter was a boy scout before she went to vietnam
F Am And found out the hard way nobody gives a damn
G They knew that they found freedom just across the jersey line
F Am So they hopped into a stolen car took highway 99
Am Em And the walls came down all the way to hell
D Never saw them when theyre standing
Am Never saw them when they fell (play before going into the next verse)
D Am D Am
Am G The undercover cop never liked the monkey man
F Am Even back in childhood he wanted to see him in the can
G Jan got married at fourteen to a rackateer named bill
F Am She made secret calls to the monkey man from a mansion on the hill
Am G It was out on thunder road - tweeter at the wheel
F Am They crashed into paradise - they could hear them tires squeal

G The undercover cop pulled up and said everyone of yous a liar
F Am If you dont surrender now its gonna go down to the wire
Am Em And the walls came down all the way to hell
D Never saw them when theyre standing
Am Never saw them when they fell
( D Am D Am )
Am G An ambulance rolled up - a state trooper close behind
F Am Tweeter took his gun away and messed up his mind
G The undercover cop was left tied up to a tree
F Am Near the souvenir stand by the old abandoned factory
Am G Next day the undercover cop was hot in pursuit
F Am He was taking the whole thing personal,He didnt care about the loot
G Jan had told him many times it was you to me who taught
F Am In jersey anythings legal as long as you dont get caught
Am Em And the walls came down all the way to hell
D Never saw them when theyre standing
Am Never saw them when they fell
( D Am D Am )
Am G Someplace by rahway prison they ran out of gas
F Am The undercover cop had cornered them said boy, you didnt Think that this could last
G Jan jumped out of bed said theres someplace I gotta go
F Am She took a gun out of the drawer and said its best if you dont know
Am G The undercover cop was found face down in a field
F Am The monkey man was on the river bridge using tweeter as a shield
G Jan said to the monkey man Im not fooled by tweeters curl
F Am I knew him long before he ever became a jersey girl
Am Em And the walls came down all the way to hell
D Never saw them when theyre standing
Am Never saw them when they fell
( D Am D Am )
Am G Now the town of jersey city is quieting down again
F Am Im sitting in a gambling club called the lions den
G The tv set been blown up, every bit of it is gone
F Am Ever since the nightly news show that the monkey man was on
Am G I guess Ill to to florida and get myself some sun
F Am There aint no more opportunity here, everythings been done
G Sometime I think of tweeter, sometime I think of jan
F Am Sometime I dont think about nothing but the monkey man
Am Em And the walls came down all the way to hell
D Never saw them when theyre standing Am Never saw them when they fell [Final] Am D Am
