[A]My be[D]loved [A]monster and [D]me [A] we go [D]everywhere to[A]gether[D]
[A]Wearing a r[D]aincoat that [A]has four s[D]leeves [A]gets us [D]through all kinds of[A] weather[D]
Chorus 1:
[E]She will always be the [D]only thing
[E]That comes between me and the [D]awful sting
E D (one strum)
That comes from living in a world that's so damn
[A]mean[D][A][D]
Verse 2:
[A]My be[D]loved [A]monster is [D]tough[A] if she [D]wants she will dis[A]robe you[D]
[A]But if you [D]lay her do[A]wn for a ki[D]ss,[A] her little [D]heart it could e[A]xplode[D]
Chorus 2:
[E]She will always be the [D]only thing
[E]That comes between me and the [D]awful sting
E D (one strum)

[A]la la la la [D]la la la la la
[A]la la la la [D]la la la la la
