The Vegemite Chords by Amanda Palmer

This is a this is a brand new song that I [Abm] wrote
Really, um really recently like less than
Less than a couple of weeks ago.
Well, I was in Melbourne _ _
[G] Um, [D] I hope you enjoy it _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] you tell me
That you love me [C] when I'm lying by your side
_ [D] You tell me that I am the [G] only one who understands your [Em] troubled mind
That I am blind [Am] to any evil you could do
And that [D] I love you more than any other girl
could ever do
[G] You love the things that I [D] love you love our [C] thing
You love books [D] and you love love as much as I [G] do and you love my dirty looks and you [Em] love me
run [Bm] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ [Gbm] you
[D] _ _ [G] _ _ Vegemite
It [C] tastes like sadness
It tastes [D] like batteries
It [G] tastes like asses.
I
Cannot hold a man [B] so close
Who spreads [C] this cancer on [Cm] his toast?
It [D] is the Vegemite my darling [G] or it's me you [D] have to make [G] a fucking choice
I cannot sit with [C] you at breakfast
The [D] very smell of it
[G] Obliterates my senses and [Bm] if that [Em] weren't bad enough you also eat the [Am] shit for lunch
Which means we can't [D] spend any time together.
What kind of relationship is that?
The [G] choice is yours
My [C] heart is in your hands, [D] please wash your hands
You [G] just hate Vegemite for lunch [Em] you selfish bastard
It's [Am] all about you isn't it?
It's just [D] take take my [Am] _ _
feelings.
[G] I'm sorry.
_ I
[C] Had this really awful experience when I was six years old [D] and our British next-door neighbor Christopher Gill
He was babysitting us and [G] he made me eat an entire spoonful of Marmite
Which is just [Em] like Vegemite pretty much except it's even grosser
And but he told me [Am] he made me eat it by telling me that it was chocolate fudge
and so I swallowed the whole [D] thing and then I had to go to the bathroom and throw up and
It really traumatized me and I'm sorry.
I got so emotional.
I just I _ _
[G] Love you, _ [C] and no matter what you eat
[D] I'll always love you
completely [G] I
Might just always leave the room [Em] at mealtimes
Or refuse to kiss [A] or touch [Am] you for a week
[D] If you insist on putting that foul death paste in your mouth
_ [G] You're in my heart
Put [C] yourself inside my shoes.
[D] I have to know
It [G] shouldn't be too hard to choose.
I know it's tearing you [Bm] apart
[C] But it's the way it has [Cm] to be
[D] It is the Vegemite my darling
_ _ _ It is [Abm] the Vegemite my [D] darling
[F] Put _ _ [D] down the Vegemite you fucker
_ _ Or [Cm] I'll leave
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [N] _
