/=slide
(repeat this (repeat this measure 4X

OW!
verse 1:(palm mute strings by fingering the chord normally, and putting
your right hand against the strings, and strumming)
Seether is neither
Loose nor tight
Seether is neither
Black nor wh - ite

I try to keep her on a short leash
I try to calm her down
I try to ram her into the gro - und
*chorus:(no palm mute)
Can't fight the seether
Can't fight the seether
Can't fight the seether
I can't see her till I'm foaming at the mouth
verse 2:(w/ palm mute)
Seether is neither
Big nor small
Seether is center
Of it a - ll
(no palm mute)
I try to rock her in my cradle
I try to knock her out
I try to cram her back in my mou - th
*CHORUS
Keep her down
Boiling water
Keep her down
What a lovely daughter
Oh, she is not born like other girls
But I know how to conceive her
Oh, she may not look like other girls
But she's in us all
To seether, seet - her!
*CHORUS (2X)
outro:
(let E5
