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

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
