Verse: 

Could be even worse than the way I usually play it, no 
guitar near by..

A5                           Bb5              C5
Starts off early Monday, the beginning of the week,
A5                                            Bb5
with a belly full of Serpents wriggling 'round making
            C5      A5
me feel sick. I know I went out last night. it's a 
Bb5                  G5     A5
price I'll have to pay, but before I've even found my 
                C5                       G5    A5
feet, I've been smothered by Tuesday..

Chorus:

The intro again (minus the Bb5 bit). Chords over lyrics for 
the benefit of someone..

D5   G5                     C5     A5
Green is the colour of your eyes
D5  G5                C5   A5   Bb5   C5
Grey is the colour of your skin
D5    G5                     C5      Bb5     A5
Yellow is the colour of your tongue, tongue, tongue
         G5
If I was you
C5             G5   C5   G5
But I'm not am I

Solo:

This requires some effect or another and possibly the 
correct tab.. :o)

E ----------------------------------------------------------

G --7--7--7--7--7--7--7--7--9--9--9--9--9--10---------------

Next Bit:

I'm not sure what the proper name is, probably 'bridge' or
something..

            G5  G5
Well I know I'm not you
G5     G5
You're not me
G5   G5            G5   G5
Everybody join in after three
Bb5 (Palm Mute)
I said 1, 2, 3..

Chorus x 2

Outro:

           G5
If I'm not you
C5              G5  C5  D5
Who the hell am I?

Don't be too critical it's my first attempt at transcribing
anything, and I've only been playing for one year..
