Tabbed by David B?rd-Barrette, McGill University, Canada, March 2004 davidbarrette@videotron.ca
This song is the first single out of the Everything to Everyone CD. If you like chimps, this is your song! I agree that this is not the best song to play all by yourself, but if you're a hardcore BNL fan like me, every song is fun to play at the guitar !
No capo and standard tuning. Any corrections are welcome !

Intro -----
[C#m, A, F#m, B] x 2
C#m, A, Fm
1st Verse --------- Esus4 You can't imagine so many monkeys in the daily mail
All of them coming anonymously so they leave no trail Esus4 I never thought I'd have an admirer from overseas
But someone is sending me stationary filled with chimpanzees.
2nd Verse (you can choose to palm mute those chords if you want) --------- E Asus2 Some chimps in swimsuits, some chimps are swinging from a vine E Asus2 Some chimps in jackboots, some chimps that wish they could be mine. E Asus2 Starsky and Hutch chimps, a chimp who's sitting on the can E Asus2 A pair of Dutch chimps who send their love from Amsterdam.
Chorus ------ E Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 Another postcard with chimpanzees E Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 And every one is addressed to me. E Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 Another postcard with chimpanzees E Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 And every one is addressed to me.
3rd Verse --------- Esus4 If I had to guess, I'd say the monkey-sender thinks it's great
He's sending me, maybe she's sending me just to see me get irate Esus4 I'm losing sleep - and it's gonna be keeping me up all night
I thought it was funny, but now I've got money on a monkey fight.
4th Verse (you can choose to palm mute those chords if you want) --------- E Asus2 Some chimps in hard hats, chimps a-working on a chain gang E Asus2 Some chimps who love cats, burning rubber in a Mustang E Asus2 A birthday-wishing chimp, a chimp in black like a goth E Asus2 A goin' fishin' chimp, a British chimp in the bath.
Chorus ------ E Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 Another postcard with chimpanzees E Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 And every one is addressed to me. E Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 Another postcard with chimpanzees E Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 And every one is addressed to me.
5th Verse --------- Esus4 Somehow they followed me even though I packed and moved my home
No matter what, they come and they come they won't leave me alone Esus4 Another monkey in the mail could make me lose my mind
But look at me shuffling through the stack until I finally find
Bridge ------ E E Some chimps in swimsuits
Some chimps in Jackboots E E Some chimps in hard hats
Some chimps who love cats E E I've got some shaved chimps; that's chimps devoid of any hair E E I've got depraved chimps dressed up in women's underwear. C#m A F#m B Another postcard with chimpanzees C#m A F#m B And every one is addressed to me. C#m A F#m B Every one is, every one is, every one is addressed to me. C#m A F#m Every one is, every one is, every one is addressed to me.
Chorus ------ E Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 Another postcard with chimpanzees E Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 And every one is addressed to me. E Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 Another postcard with chimpanzees E Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 And every one is addressed to me. E Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 Another postcard with chimpanzees E Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 And every one is addressed to me. E Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 Another postcard with chimpanzees E Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 And every one is addressed to me.
End on E
