Nirvana - Polly (As played in Unplugged in NY CD)

Comments:
This is the very first song I've learned to play in full length. I tried to transcribe the tab so it is as accurate as possible, not just chords (that's what I found on most of Nirvana's fan sites. This is the way I play it, and it sounds fairly correct.) It sounds good in both standard and half-step down tunings (On the CD it is played with the guitar tuned half-step down).

Verse:
Polly wants a cracker
I think I should get off her first
I think she wants some water
To put out the blow torch
Chorus:
It isn't me
We have some seed
Let me clip
Your dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself
I've got some rope
You have been told
I promise you
I have been true
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To please myself
Polly wants a cracker
Maybe she would like more food
She asks me to untie her
A chase would be nice for a few
It isn't me
We have some seed
Let me clip
Your dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself
I've got some rope
You have been told
I promise you
I have been true
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To please myself
Polly said
Polly says her back hurts
She's just as bored as me
She caught me off my guard
Amazes me, the will of instinct
It isn't me
We have some seed
Let me clip
Your dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself
I've got some rope
You have been told
I promise you
I have been true
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To please myself
