The song couldn't come from a freakier band. The Eels are definitley the experts when it comes to delivering cold haunting melodies combined with eerie lyrics. This is one of my favourite tracks off their fabulous album. This one would happily fit into a good horror movie and couldn't come at a better time, with the horror genre going retro! Go ahead, I dare you to play this one alone! To make the most out of the chords, play all the sections except the Choruses with lots of added bass. Play the Choruses with light sweep picking movements. Recommended Chord Positions: Am xO221O C x32O1O Dm xxO231 F/E x3321O G 32OO33 Intro: Am F/E Dm F/E {x2} (Without bass) Am F/E Dm F/E (With bass) Verse 1: Am F/E Mama crept onto the milkman's hand Dm F/E And then she finally gave birth Am F/E Years go by, still I don't know Dm F/E Who shall inherit this Earth?
