When I saw the tabs for this great song I nearly puked. This great song will be battered no more. Here is the exact way to play the song. Well, almost correct. I don't really feel like adding al the ghost notes that Kurt plays. You'll have to listen to the CD if you want to know EXACTLY how Kurt plays the song. This is the complete version of the song WITHOUT the solo. I don't really like the solo and I didn't feel like tabbing it!

(note: you can also hear in the background the lead   guitar track. It's just the note on the 4th fret on the "B" string bent full. It's played inbetween each chord of the chorus and at the end of the post chorus. you can listen to the CD to find out for yourself! I'm pretty sure it's right though. Also, the timing is off. You can find that out for yourself. It's really easy. That's it for the song. Below are the lyrics. L8ters)

LYRICS:
she eyes me like a pisces when I am weak
i've been locked inside you heart-shaped box four weeks
i've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
i wish i could eat your cancer when you turn black

hey
wait
i've got a new complaint
forever in debt to your priceless advice

meat-eating orchids forgive no one just yet
cut myself on angel hair and babys breath
broken hymen of you highness i'm left black
throw down your umbillical noose so i can climb right back
