Tom: A

   A             A7            D           F7
A buzzard took a monkey for a ride in the air,
     A                  F#         F#m7      F7     E7
The monkey thought that ev' - ry - thing was on the square.
     A                A7              D          F7
The buzzard tried to throw the money off of his back,
         A                 F#m       F#m7      Bm7-5       E9
But the monkey grabbed his neck and said, "Now list - en, Jack.


Refrain:

 A6                D6
"Straighten up and fly right, 
 A6              Bm7-5 E9
Straighten up and fly right,
 A6               D6
Straighten up and fly right, -- 
A6                          F9       E9
Cool down, Papa, don't you blow your top.
 A6              D6     A6                Bm7-5
Ain't no use in divin', what's the use in drivin'?
  A6             D6
Straighten up and fly right, -- 
A6         F#M             E9   E7    A6
Cool down, Papa, don't you blow your top."


Bridge:

    C#7                  
The buzzard told the monkey, "You are chokin' me;
   F#7                       F#9      G9   F#9
Release your holt and I will set you free."
    B9                             
The monkey looked the buzzard right dead in the eye,
     B7          E9                    Bm7-5       F9      E9
And said, "Your story's so touchin' it sounds just like a lie."
