This is the chord progression of Monsters by Eric Church on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and Keyboard.
[Verse 1]
E C#m
I killed my first monster when I was seven years old
E B
He melted like butter in my bathroom\’s sixty-watt bulb
E C#m
Kept a three-cell MagLite from Daddy\’s workshop drawer
E B
Under my pillow and I\’d pull it like a sword
[Chorus]
A E B C#m
Anymore when a restless feelin\’ keeps me up at night
A E B E
Fallin\’ on my knees is my new turnin\’ on the light
A E B C#m
I keep my faith intact, make sure my prayers are said
A E A E A
\’Cause I\’ve learned that the monsters ain\’t the ones beneath the bed
[Verse 2]
E A
The wolf hunts a hungry man and the devil a lonely heart
E B
A minefield of bad decisions lay hidin\’ in the dark
E A
Greed stalks, sickness steals, and pride lays a wicked trap
E B E
You can\’t avoid \’em all, no, you gotta trust me on that
[Chorus]
A E B C#m
Anymore when a restless feelin\’ keeps me up at night
A E B E
Fallin\’ on my knees is my new turnin\’ on the light
A E B C#m
I keep my faith intact, make sure my prayers are said
A E B C#m
\’Cause I\’ve learned that the monsters ain\’t the ones beneath the bed
A E B E
I\’ve learned that the monsters ain\’t underneath the bed
[Verse 3]
E A
Daddy, check my closet, leave on the bathroom light
E B
I smile and say \”All clear\” when I tuck him in for the night
E A
But Daddy, I\’m still scared, can I sleep with you instead?
E
I kneel down beside my little man and I bow my head
[Chorus]
A E B C#m
Anymore when a restless feelin\’ keeps me up at night
A E B E
Fallin\’ on my knees is my new turnin\’ on the light
A E B C#m
I keep my faith intact, make sure my prayers are said
A E B C#m
\’Cause I\’ve learned that the monsters ain\’t the ones beneath the bed
A E B E
I\’ve learned that the monsters ain\’t underneath the bed
