C   C  G                  C    C  G 
All he wanted was a lady, when at night he came up from the deep 
C  C                                 C C      G 
He was feeling like any other lonely fella, decided to take one while the city was asleep 

Pre-Chorus 
    D   C        G          C                       G 
The unsuspecting maiden was clutched from where she lay 
    D      C        G                   C                   G 
And taken away to a home down under the waters of the local bay

       C                                 G 
By the Creature from the Black Lagoon-a, strange to see him back so soon

After his last intended did the dirty on him, didn't last five minutes in the swim 
         C                                    G 
With the Creature from the Black Lagoon-a, be seeing him again real soon 
      C                                  D                      G 
After this intended lets him down, won't last five minutes with him around

Only surfaced for a companion, 'cause of that he's never been seen 
C    C G                                   C C         G 
Just a big look written in the eyes of his baby, and a cry of terror, a honeymoon scream

And taken away to a home down under the water, and that's for keeps
