My Beloved Monster Acoustic Chords

(ver. 3)
Eels
Standard Tuning EADGBe

An easy strummy acoustic singer/songwriter style way of performing the song in a way still true to the 
original recording. 

Intro riff: (played on the high e string)

e:--6-6-6--8-8-8--4-4-5----/


Main riff during the verse:

        A           D

e |------9----------10---|                   e|-----------------------------|
B |---10---10----10----10|                   B|--------14-----------15------|
G |-9---------11---------|                   G|-----14----14-----14-----14--|
D |----------------------|                   D|--14-----------16------------|
A |----------------------|                   A|-----------------------------|
E |----------------------| or an easier way: E|-----------------------------|


or you could play it an octave lower which makes it easier to sing the lyrics over:

     A              D

e--------------------------/
B-------2------------3-----/
G-----2----2-------2---2---/
D--2------------4----------/
A--------------------------/
E--------------------------/



Verse 1:

A    D     A           D  A      D            A       D
My beloved monster and me  we go everywhere together
A          D            A         D      A       D                   A         D
Wearing a raincoat that has four sleeves gets us through all kinds of weather


Chorus 1:

E                      D
She will always be the only thing
E                             D
That comes between me and the awful sting
E                           D (one strum)
That comes from living in a world that's so damn
A     D    A  D
mean


Verse 2:

A    D     A          D    A        D                 A        D
My beloved monster is tough  if she wants she will disrobe you

A          D         A          D  A            D               A       D
But if you lay her down for a kiss,  her little heart it could explode


Chorus 2:

E                      D
She will always be the only thing
E                             D
That comes between me and the awful sting
E                           D (one strum)
That comes from living in a world that's so damn
A     D    A  D
mean
