Barbarella Tab

by Scott Weiland


BARBARELLA by Scott Weiland from the album "12 Bar Blues"

One of my favourite tunes to sing.  Perhaps it's the message.
Intro (has no guitar or even a set rhythm, but I've provided the chords)
   

(VERSE)

You play the game I'll masturbate and sing a lullaby

You run the race I'll pay the miles

You sing the pink love fuzz and dance the musty queer

I'll stay at home 'cause I'm the mouse

So high that I can't fly, More deep than space #9

Can't tell by telling time

She's so ready, I'm so heavy It's so heavy on me

Can't hold time by holding time

(REFRAIN)

Barbarella, come and save me from my misery

Can't you see it's a disease

Shoot the bad guys and I'll gladly sing a tune for you

We're lost in space- we could be free

(VERSE)
Let go, let God they say
I do believe but not in yours or yours
I just believe it's all the same
Don't know just who I am
Don't know about the lamb
I'm the meat of the feast

REFRAIN
Barbarella...

            
Na na na na na na
             
Na na na na na na na
            
Na na na na na na

Uuuh uuh uuh
          
Uuuh uuh uuh
         
Uuuh uuh uuh 

BRIDGE
   

(VERSE)
And all the tangerines
They taste like jelly beans
This must be boring by now
Grab a scale and guess the weight of all
the pain I've given with my name
I'm a selfish piece of...

REFRAIN w/ "Na nas" and "Uuh uuhs" at end; absolute last chord is:
