Aimee Mann - Frankenstein guitar tab

Frankenstein/Aimee Mann

(I still have the shake in my voice

And I'm going to sing you this song)

Em Bm C D

I don't know you from Adam, it could make my day

If you leave me a message I'll give it away

'Cause the most perfect strangers that you can talk to

Are the ones who pretend that you're not really you

Em D C Em

Are with any attempts here to play Frankenstein

Em D F C G/B Am

Come with plenty of chances for changing your mind

Em D C A

When you're building your own creation

Em D C

Nothing's better than real than a real

G D/F# Em C G D/F# Em C

Imitation

Em Bm C D

I won't find it fantastic or think it absurd

When the gun in the first act goes off in the third

'Cause it's rare that you ever know what to expect

From a guy made of corpses with bolts in his neck

Em D C Em

If the creature is limping the parts are in place

Em D F C G/B Am

With a mind of its own and a fist for a face

Em D C A

Say hello to your new creation

Em D C

Now it's better than real it's a real

G D/F# Em C G D/F# Em C

Imitation

Bb A7

You may wonder what the catch is

F7 D7

As we batten down the hatches

Em Bm C D

And when later we find that the thing we devised

Has the villagers clamouring for it's demise

We will have to admit the futility of

Trying to make something more of this jerry-built love

Em D C Em

And you'll notice it bears a resemblance to

Em D F C G/B Am

Everything I imagined I wanted from you

Em D C A

But at least it's my own creation

Em D C

And it's better than real it's a real

G D/F# Em C G D/F# Em C

Imitation

G D/F# Em C G D/F#

Bb A7 F7 Eb A7 4x

Em (bass notes)B D B Em [repeat]
