Andre Williams - "The Monkey Speaks His Mind" Chords

_ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Yeah, _ _ _ _
[F#m] the monkey speaks his [F#] mind. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Now three monkeys sit in a coconut tree, discussing
things that they are said to be.
Said one monkey to the other, now listen you two, there's
a certain rumor that can't be true.
That man descended from a noble race, the very idea
is a big disgrace.
_ No monkey ever jerded his wife, _ _ _ starved his babies and ruined her life.
_ [F#m] Yeah, _ the monkey [F#]
speaks his mind. _ _ _ _ _ _
And you never [G#] know the mother [F#] monk can leave her babies
_ _ with others' monks, _ [F#m] or pass them on from [F#] one to another until they hardly know their own mother.
_ _ Yeah, _ _ _ _ _ the monkey _ speaks his mind. _ _ _ _ _
Yeah.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F#m]
And another thing you'll never [F#] see, _ _ a monkey build
a fence around a coconut tree [F#m] and let the coconuts go to waste, _ [G] _
[F#] _ [C#m] forbidding all [F#] other monkeys to come and take.
Now if I put a fence around this tree, _ _ starvation will force you to spill for me.
_ _ Yeah, _ _ _ _ _ the monkey speaks his mind. _
_ _ _ _ _ Here's another thing a monkey won't do, go out on the night and get on a stint, or use a gun, a club or a knife _ to take another _ monkey's life.
_ Yes, man descended, the work is small, but brothers from us, he did not come. _ _
Yeah, _ _ the monkey _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ speaks _ _ his mind.
Talk monkey, _ _ [C] speak [F#] monkey, _ _ kill it like it is.
