Just looked at this again (26/10/97) and listened to the bass in the
chorus which has given me a way of playing this little rocker.
You can put an Asus4 x0223x in the verses as an embellishment to keep
the rhythm. The D in the intro etc is like an Asus4 if you avoiding
hitting the top string. Sorta grungy.
Intro: E A D A E A D A E A D
A Asus4
I`ve been drinking strychnine and I`ve dined on plastic combs
A Asus4
Celebrities removed my teeth and made me clean their homes
D Dsus4
I`ve seen operations that would chill you to the bones
A Asus4
I`ve been charged with homicide for killing garden gnomes
Lethal spirochaetes of poison rifle through my blood
Little bombs of toxin are exploding in my gut
A girl without an umbrella relaxes in the rain
She smiled and then she broke my legs I`ll never walk again
CHORUS (power chords for F# and F, the bass dominates)
A (577655) G (355433) F# F
I gotta get over it and move on Get over it and move on
I gotta get over it and move on Get over it and move on
E A D A E A D A
move on move on
The police hauled me downtown the barber shaved me bald
I woke up in a cardboard box wet and freezing cold
The hound dogs ate my leftovers and my penicillin mould
Now I keep my mouth shut and do just what I`m told
CHORUS
Authorities removed my carpets and repossessed my bed
Then the milkman stripped my roof of every ounce of lead
The pop machine has new agendas now Gangsta`s girls and jerks
They call it entertainment. That`s the way it works
CHORUS
