The Nips Are Getting Bigger  Mental as Anything

THE NIPS ARE GETTING BIGGER - Mental As Anything
Transcribed by Daniel Schaumann
INTRO:
|This first bit is sort of like an 'intro to the intro' as can|
|be seen in the timing change. It is played only once, being |
|followed by the 'main guitar progression' straight away |

MAIN GUITAR PROGRESSION:

[G]Ran right out of beer, I took a look into the [C]larder[D]
[G]No bones nothing I'd better go and get something [C]harder[D]
[G]Back in a flash I started on a dash of Jam[C]aica Rum[D]
[G]Me and Pat Malone, drinking on our [C]own[D]

[G]Oh, the nips are getting [C]bigger[D]

[G]Yeah, they're getting [C]bigger[D]
REPEAT GUITAR BREAK
[G]Sometimes I wonder what all these chemicals are [C]doing to my brain[D]
[G]Doesn't worry me enough to stop me from [C]doing it again[D]
[G]Wiping out brain cells by the million but [C]I don't care[D]
[G]Doesn't worry me even though I ain't got a [C]lot to spare[D]
