Start Jamming...
[C] [G] Polly is one of the songs [D] that was actually recorded at Smart Studios [E] that was going to
be [F] for the Sub Pop album and ended up [E] going out to Nevermind.
It's the only song that was done here [Fm] that made it out to Nevermind.
The song is very spare and it's very haunting.
[G] Sometimes the quietest [F] songs become the most intense.
Okay, we're [E] rolling.
[Bb] [A]
[Bb] A little bit of a [E] false start.
[C] [Gb] You can hear how [D] cheap the guitar sounds.
[C]
[D] Polly wants a cracker.
Her voice [A] sounds fantastic.
I think I should get [C] off her first.
[D]
Think she wants some [C] water.
[A] Do put out the blow torch.
We went [D] back and added the harmony and [C] the chorus.
Isn't [Bb] me [D] having seed?
[N] Let me clip dirty wings.
The girl is a great singer.
Let [B] me take a ride.
Cut [Gb] yourself.
There's some mournfulness in [G] there.
It comes [Bb] across.
Got some rope.
[F] Heaven told.
[D] Promise you.
Heaven true.
Let me take a ride.
Cut yourself.
Want some help.
[B] Please [G] myself.
[D] A [C] little bass [E] break.
[G] There's a little spot there [C] where Kurt came in too [E] early.
[D] [C] And we left it [B] in.
[D] She's just as [C] bored as [E] me.
[D] She called me off my [E] guard.
[D]
Amazes me the [C] will of instinct.
Isn't [F] me [D] having seed?
[C] Let me clip [Bb]
dirty wings.
[C] Underneath the guitar and the vocals,
[Bb] Chris' [C] bass is just giving a cool little pulse.
[Bb] [C]
[Bb] [C] Keeps the track moving.
[D] There's no drums really except [C] for the cymbal and [Bb] percussion overdubs.
Cut yourself.
[C] Want some [Bb] help.
Please [E] myself.
[Gb]
