BARBARELLA by Scott Weiland from the album "12 Bar Blues"
From the 1998 album 12 Bar Blues
One of my favourite tunes to sing. Perhaps it's the message.
Intro has no guitar or even a set rhythm, but I've provided the chords.

G
You play the game I'll masturbate and sing a lullaby
Em
You run the race I'll pay the miles
C
You sing the pink love fuzz and dance the musty queer
D
I'll stay at home 'cause I'm the mouse
G
So high that I can't fly, More deep than space #9
Em
Can't tell by telling time
C
She's so ready, I'm so heavy It's so heavy on me
D
Can't hold time by holding time
[CHORUS]
G
Barbarella, come and save me from my misery
Em

C
Shoot the bad guys and I'll gladly sing a tune for you
D
We're lost in space- we could be free

N.C.
And all the tangerines
N.C.
They taste like jelly beans
N.C.
This must be boring by now
N.C.
Grab a scale and guess the weight of all
N.C.
the pain I've given with my name
N.C.
I'm a selfish piece of...
