            A Baby for Pree (Live at Jittery Joe's) - Jeff Mangum
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I suggest finding someway to listen to this version before you try to play it. It would 
difficult just off the chords alone.

This is the LIVE AT JITTERY JOE'S version of the song, NOT the one on On Avery Island.

NOTE: His guitar is tuned slightly sharp when playing this song, so if you try to play 
the CD it will sound off. Even a capo on the first will be too sharp, you have to be just 
sharp. A flat sharp, if that makes sense.

Intro:

C Em F Em C

C Em F Em C

C

C                                       Em
Blistering Pree, all smiling and swollen
      F                                               Em
Makes babies to breathe with their hearts hanging open
    C                                              Em      F
All over the sheets as soft as beets in some brown dresser drawer
Em       F                                              Em
And with bees in her breath and the rest of her ringing
        F                                                    Em
They'll sting through her chest with a force hard and beating
      C
Until wonderfully wet she will get
                         Em   F
Until she's soaked inside her clothes
                                  E
And there is no sorry to be sorry for
                      F                                     E
For a roll around the floor some afternoon so sound and soft
                            F                                  E
It made her swallow all her sweat with every bit of breath she coughs
                            F                                           G
And when the day it came to pour all her babies all across the bathroom floor
                                      C C Em F Em
She will be swimming in them all forevermore


C          Em   F      Em   C
Glow right into you, I will glow
      Em   F     Em   C
Right into you I will glow
      Em   F
Right into you
              E
And I let you down
            F                          E
Swollen and small is where you find me now
                           F                                E
With that silver stripping off and my tongue you're tearing out
                         F
And you'll never hear me talk
C          Em   F      Em   C
Glow right into you, I will glow
      Em   F     Em   C
Right into you I will glow
      Em   F
Right into you


              E
And I will be strong, strong enough
   F                                         E
To shout above your voice that's blaring hard
                             F                               E
And your face that's falling out into the dust of what you are
                          F G C C Em 
Em
And I will never hear you talk


C          Em   F      Em   C
Glow right into you, I will glow
      Em   F     Em   C
Right into you I will glow
      Em   F  E
Right into you


                   F      E
And with my little finger
                   F       E
I could make it all crumble
                   F     E
I could make it all over
        F         G
Before you would even know
C
