The Monkey Song Tab por Veggie Tales

(spoken)
Narr: And now it's time for silly songs with Larry, 
     the part of the show where Larry comes out and 
     sings a silly song.
     Today Larry and Bob are on a photo safari - 
     hot on the trail of a monkey... or an ape... 
     we don't know which, hence the song.

    F#m                                  C#7
L: If it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey, 
                                 F#m
even if it has a monkey kind of shape.
F#m                                   C#7
If it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey,
                                                    F#m
if it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey it's an ape.

 F#m                                  C#7
If it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey 
                                      F#m
B: let's see if we can catch it on the tape
    F#m                                   C#7
L: you can very plainly see if it's a monkey 
                                                    F#m
if it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey it's an ape

    A
B: Look there it goes, there it goes, I don't know 
         B
I can't tell if it's a monkey or an ape

(spoken)
L: It's very simple, Bob, 
      F#m                            C#7
If it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey
                                                    F#m
if it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey it's an ape

(spoken)
B: Uh larry, I'm not so sure...
    F#m                     C#7
L: ooga booga isn't that a monkey
                           F#m
B: ooga booga maybe it's an ape
                                   C#7
L: if it's a nickel or a salad or a pillow 
                                                   F#m
if it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey it's an ape

         F#m
B: If it doesn't have a tail
        C#7
L: not a monkey
                                             F#m
B: are you sure that's what you really mean to say?

A camera has no tail
             C#7
L: it's not a monkey 
                                                    F#m
if it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey it's an ape

(vamp - spoken) 
B: Huh, I think there's something wrong 
    with your logic, Larry
L: Well Bob, the lady at the zoo said it, 
    and who am I to tell her that she's wrong?
    if there's a tail, it's a monkey, no tail, ape.
    It's easy.

                 F#m 
B: But Larry, a kite has a tail
              C#7
L: Then it's a monkey
      C#7           
B: A comet has a tail
        F#m
L: It's a monkey

B: A bubble doesn't...
                   C#7
L: then it's not a monkey
                      C#7 
if it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey 
            F#m
B: it's an ape?

(spoken)
L: Exactly... I knew you'd catch on.
B: Larry, we might need to talk about this, 
   I don't think the lady at the zoo meant...

     A
L: look there it goes in the trees, follow me, 
    B
It's gotta be a monkey or an ape

     D (rapid strum)
I can't believe it's true, 
         G
all this time I've searched for you, 
            E7
snap the picture take the shot
         A
we're among the lucky few, 
            Bm
we finally did it photographer, 
         C
we've discovered what we're after
        A
let me look, is it an ape?

(spoken)
B: Larry, this is a disaster
L: It's a monkey!
B: Larry, that's a cow, not a...
L: That was exhilarating let's find more!

(spoken)
Narr: This has been silly songs with Larry
Tune in next time to hear Bob say:
B: Uh Larry, you don't have a tail
L: I don't?
B: Nope, and neither do I 
L: I wouldn't be so sure about that Bob
B: W-what do you mean?
L: Oh nothin'
