                             PLUMP by Hole
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The trick here is that funky upstroke/downstroke strumming pattern which is probably the
only difficult part to playing this song. The upstroke/downstroke is on an F#m barre
chord, and the trick is to alternate between lifting your index finger off and then
placing it back on the fret (listen to the song for timing). Other than that, it's all fairly
simple chords. It sounds like Courtney Love is probably playing an open A chord on that
main riff, while Eric Erlandson's playing a barre chord. Note that during the bridge
(the "do you fake it for me" part), there is one guitar quietly strumming the chords and 
another one playing arpeggios.

Tuning: Standard


Intro:

F#m A E


F#m                      A  E
He shakes his dead rattle

F#m               A  E
Spittle on his bib

F#m                       A  E
And I don't do the dishes

F#m                      A  E
I throw them in the crib



E5 D5
      I'm eating you

E5 D5
      I'm overfed

E5 D5
      Your milk's in my mouth

E5 D5
      It makes me sick



F#m                    A  E
And I've stumbled here

F#m                    A  E
Failed to make it mine

F#m                A  E
They say I'm plump

F#m                         A  E
But I throw up all the time



E5 D5
      I'm eating you

E5 D5
      I'm overfed

E5 D5
      Your milk's in my mouth

E5 D5
      It makes me sick



B      G
Do you fake it

B      G
For me like I...

B      G
Do you fake it

B      G
For me like I...

B      G
Do you fake it

B      G
For me like I...



F#m                   A  E
My baby's in her arms

F#m                  A  E
Crawlin' up her legs

F#m                          A  E
Like a liar at a witch trial

F#m                   A  E
You look good for age



E5 D5
      I'm eating you

E5 D5
      I'm overfed

E5 D5
      Your milk's in my mouth

E5 D5
      It makes me sick


F#m A
