from Nirvana *In Utero*
Music and words by Kurt Cobain
Transcribed by Robert Wolsey
Tune down 1/2-step: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
NOTE: These are the chords you are pretending to play; the
actual chords that come out are a half-step lower because of
the tuning. Play A-barre chords on the chorus.
[Am]Im on my time with [G]everyone
[Am]I have very bad [G]posture
[C]Sit and drink [D]Pennyroyal [A#]Tea
[C]Distill the life [D]thats inside of [A#]me
[C]Sit and drink [D]Pennyroyal [A#]Tea
[C]Im ane[D]mic [A#]royalty
Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld
So I can sigh eternally
Im so tired I cant sleep
Im a liar and a thief
Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
Im anemic royalty
Im on warm milk and laxatives
Cherry-flavored antacids
(End on Am)
Tips: Slide up fron the C barre to the D barre during the
chorus. During the verse, play F# G E on the low E string as
the change between the G and Am.
