She Did A Lot Of Acid Tab

by Neutral Milk Hotel


This is awesome.

Intro & Verse: A (taking your finger on and off of the B string)

She had a mental problem, she couldn't concentrate
She was her own delusion, she was her own mistake
She did a lot of acid, that put the voices down
And one day at her birthday, they found her hanging upside down

                                   
They say she lived her life on the avenue
                                          
They say she cried from the weight of her spit
                                            
They claim they were the only ones that she ever knew
         
Ah, but why are they weeping now?
              
When she was alive they were not around
                          
They were locked in their own abyss

(back to Intro thing)

We met in the gutter, we shared a smoke or two
I told about my mother, she showed me her tattoo
She went out through the city, got lost in Fulton Town
And one day at her birthday, they found her hanging upside down

                              
They say she live her life an American
                             
They say she whored away for pills
                                  
They claim they offered her their helping hand
         
But the talk's all the same to me
             
They call themselves her family
                  
It just makes me ill

(the end)


the G sounds like he's got a Db note thrown in there on the version i have, but I prefer 
plain G, it sounds just as well. (if not better)
