Am Tweeter and the monkey man were
G hard up for cash
F They stayed up all night selling
Am 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 Tweeter was a boy scout before she
G went to vietnam
F And found out the hard way nobody
Am gives a damn
G They knew that they found freedom just across the jersey line
F So they hopped into a stolen car
Am 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 The undercover cop never liked the
G monkey man
F Even back in childhood he wanted to
Am 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 It was out on thunder road - tweeter
G at the wheel
F They crashed into paradise - they
Am 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 An ambulance rolled up - a state
G trooper close behind
F Tweeter took his gun away and messed
Am 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 Next day the undercover cop was hot
G in pursuit
F He was taking the whole thing
Am 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 Someplace by rahway prison they ran
G out of gas
F The undercover cop had cornered them
Am 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 The undercover cop was found face
G down in a field
F The monkey man was on the river
Am bridge using tweeter as a shield
G Jan said to the monkey man Im not fooled by tweeters curl
F I knew him long before he ever
Am 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 Now the town of jersey city is
G quieting down again
F Im sitting in a gambling club called
Am the lions den
G The tv set been blown up, every bit of it is gone
F Ever since the nightly news show
Am that the monkey man was on
Am I guess Ill to to florida and get
G myself some sun
F There aint no more opportunity here,
Am everythings been done Sometime I think of tweeter,
G 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
