Nirvana
Pennyroyal Tea
In Utero (1993)

Tune down 1/2 step

H-hm

Am                  G         f♯ g e
I'm on my time with everyone
Am              G       < \
I have very bad posture

  C       /D               B♭     a b♭ a b♭ a
  Sit and drink pennyroyal tea                             (disto)
  Distill the life that's inside of me
  Sit and drink pennyroyal tea
  C    /D         B♭ <
  I'm anemic royalty

Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld
So I can sigh eternally

  I'm so tired I can't sleep
  I'm a liar and a thief
  Sit and drink pennyroyal tea
  I'm anemic royalty

Am  G  x 2

  w/ solo: a  ^b ^a^g ^b^a^g  a  ^b ^a^g ^b^a^g
                                       
           g  b g  g f♯ e d c♯ b a^b♭^g

C  /D  B♭    a b♭ a b♭ a C  /D  B♭

I'm on warm milk and laxatives
Cherry-flavored antacids

  Sit and drink pennyroyal tea
  Distill the life that's inside of me
  Sit and drink pennyroyal tea
  I'm anemic royalty

Am  x 4  w/ disto

Am  x 4  clean  (ral.)


(Unplugged: different key - souvent A au lieu de Am
            pas de fioritures dans refrain
            pas de solo
            Cm au lieu de C début 3e refrain
            finale: Asus2  puis  Am  x 4  a  ral.)

(Kristin Hersh: demi-B♭ dans refrain)
