Intro: |E |Esus4 |E |Esus4 |
E Esus4 E Esus4
Welcome to my secret lair on Skullcrusher Mountain
E Esus4
I hope that you've enjoyed your stay so far
E7
I see you met my assistant Scarface
A E
His appearance is quite disturbing
A B7
but I assure you he's harmless enough
A E
He's a sweetheart, calls me Master
A B7 A B7
And he has a way of finding pretty things
A B7
and bringing them to me
Chorus
E
I'm so into you
Bm
But I'm way too smart for you
A
Even my henchmen think I'm crazy
Am
I'm not surprised that you agree
E
If you could find some way to be
Bm
A little bit less afraid of me
A
You'd see the voices that control me
Am
from inside my head
D7 E Esus4
Say I shouldn't kill you....yet
E Esus4 E Esus4
I made this half-pony half-monkey monster to please you
E Esus4
But I get the feeling that you don't like it
E7
What's with all the screaming?
A E
You like monkeys, you like ponies
A B7
Maybe you don't like monsters so much
A E
Maybe I used too many monkeys
A B7 A B7
Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony
A B7
making a gift for you?
Chorus
E
I'm so into you
Bm
But I'm way too smart for you
A
Even my henchmen think I'm crazy

D7 E Esus4 E E7
Say I shouldn't kill you....yet
Bridge
A G#m
Picture the two of us alone inside my golden submarine
A B7
While up above the waves my doomsday squad
E E7
ignites the atmosphere
A
And all the fools who lead their foolish lives
G#m C#7
may find it quite explosive
F#m A B7
Well it won't mean half as much to me if I don't have you here
Verse 3
E Esus4 E Esus4
You know it isn't easy living here on Skullcrusher Mountain
E Esus4
So maybe you could cut me just a little slack
E7
Would it kill you to be civil?
A E
I've been patient, I've been gracious
A B7
And this mountain is covered with wolves
A E
Hear them howling, my hungry children
A B7 A B7
Maybe you should stay and have another drink
A B7
and think about me and you
Final Chorus
E
I'm so into you
