Monty this seems strange to me, the movies had that movie thing
Gm                 Bb                Dm     C          G
But nonsense has a welcome ring and heros don't come easy
Gm                 Bb          Gm              Bb
Now nonsense isn't new to me, I know my head I know my feet
Gm                      Bb                Dm   C   G   Dm    C   G
But mischief knocked me in the knees so just let go, just let go
Gm              Bb             Gm               Bb
I saw the ocean meet the man, I saw you buried in the sand
Gm                    Bb                Dm    C    G
A friend was there to hold my hand, so walk on by
Gm                Bb                   Gm                  Bb
So I went walking through the stream, I saw you strung up in a tree
Gm                Bb                Dm    C    G       Dm    C    G
A woman out there said to me, said hold your tongue, hold your tongue
Bb         Dm      C   G     Bb         Dm         C   G
You don't owe me anything, you don't want this sympathy [waste your breath]
Bb         Dm          C                          Dm       C      G
Don't you waste your breath [waste your breath] for the silver screen
Gm                    Bb             Gm                     Bb
That nonsense doesn't mean a thing, they tried to bust you in a sting
Gm               Bb             Dm     C     G
But virtue isn't everything so don't waste time
Gm                      Bb              Gm               Bb
Now Here's a rhyme that you must hear, put this on your reel to reel
Gm                 Bb            Dm       C      G    Dm     C      G
Mischief through a rotten deal, Monty's laying low, he is laying low
Dm    C   G   Dm    C   G
Just let go, just let go
Bb         Dm      C   G     Bb         Dm         C   G
You don't owe me anything, you don't want this sympathy [waste your breath]
Bb         Dm          C                          Bb          Dm     C       G
Don't you waste your breath [waste your breath] Monty this seems strange to me
