Monkees - What Am I Doin Hangin Around Chords & Tabs

 lyrics from reprint of 1965-67 sheet music

C                                  G7                C
Just a loud-mouthed Yankee, I went down to Mexico

                                   G7             C
I didn't have much time to spend, about a week or so,

       F             Bb                F             Bb     F
Then I lightly took advantage of a girl who loved me so.

      F              Dm               Bb
But I found myself a-thinkin' when my time 

    F
Had come

   C      G7      C7     Am7     C7
To go


F              Dm             Gm7
     What am I doin' hangin' 'round?

A                                  Bb
     I should be on that train and gone

Db                              F            Dm
     I should be ridin' on that train to San Anton'

Gm7            C              F
     What am I doin' hangin' 'round?


    C                            G7                  C
She took me to the garden and we took a little walk

                                     G7              C
I didn't know much Spanish and there was no time for talk

         F                Bb                      F           Bb     F
Then she told me that she loved me, not with words but with a kiss

    F              Dm               Bb
And like a fool, I kept on thinkin' of a train

  F
I could not

C       G7
Miss



F              Dm             Gm7
     What am I doin' hangin' 'round?

A                                  Bb
     I should be on that train and gone

Gm7            C              F
     What am I doin' hangin' 'round?


           C                        G7
Well, it's been a year or so, and I wanna go back again

                                   G7                C
And if I get the money, well, I'll ride the same old train

      F                  Bb                    F               Bb    F
But I guess your chances come but once, and boy, I sure missed mine

    F                  Dm              Bb
And still I can't stop thinkin' when I hear

     F
Some whistle

C        G7     C7    Am7    C7
Cryin'



F              Dm             Gm7
     What am I doin' hangin' 'round?
