THE DEAD MILKMEN
I Hate Myself

from Now We Are Ten

Tabbed by: Ben Gladdle (moose9377@hotmail.com)


Love the lyrics to this one. This version seems to differ from the
lyrics given on the official site, which must be a transcription
of the Banana Peels EP version. At first, I thought the "love my
belt" part was because this was a censored version, but then it
launches into the "I take drugs" bit anyway.

The last verse is a real mess. I had a quick shot at it, but I
wouldn't bother. I'd just play it like the other verses.

Lyrics:
------
G   C    C G      C    C G
I - hate myself - Hate myself
    D    G G    D
And you, I hate you
I hate myself - hate myself
And you - I hate you

A         E       D           A
Roses are red and violets are blue
I hate me and I hate you
I hate my life and you hate yours
I hate my life and you hate yours

D                      E      E*
Let's get together and make a pact
Let's get together and make a pact
Let's get together and end it all
Let's get together in a bathroom stall


I - love my belt, love my belt
And Glue - I love glue (Yeah, New York skinheads!)
I - love my belt, love my belt
And Glue - I love glue
Bruises are black and
Bruises are blue
I take drugs and
I sniff glue
I hate my life and you hate yours
I hate my life and you hate yours
Let's get together and make a pact
Let's get together and make a pact
Let's get together and slit our wrists
Let's get together and do the twist


Last bit:
--------
I eat lye soap - eat lye soap
(Random wailing)

I'm not sure of the chords for much of this bit, but the last few are
G  A  C  G

For the first bit, I'd just stick to playing the normal verse chords.
Or just make something up that sounds slightly incoherent. :)
