Band: Green Day
Song: Platypus (I Hate You)
Album: Nimrod, track 8, Reprise Records, 1997
WARNING!!!: If played properly, this song can really hurt your wrist,elbow,
shoulder and hand. This song makes Basket Case seem like a slow waltz.
I minimally censored some of the lyrics,
even though we all know what they are.

***Note***
Almost the entire song is played with up and
down super-strumming, unless otherwise noted
Intro: x4
Pre-verse:
Verse:
Your rise and fall, back up against the wall
What goes around is coming back and haunting you
It s time to quit, cause you ain t worth the sh*t
Under my shoes or the piss on the ground
Chorus: (down strumming, then up-down, then down)
No one loves you and you know it
Don t pretend that you enjoy it, or you don t care!
Cause now I wouldn t lie or tell you all the things you want to hear.
Cause I hate you! x4
Pre-verse
Verse 2:
I heard your stick, sucked on that cancer stick
A throbbing tumor and a radiation high
Sh*t out of luck, and now your time is up
It brings me pleasure just to know you re gonna die
Chorus
Interlude: (play intro part over these lyrics)
Dick-head, f*ck-fuce, -smoking, mother-f*cking,
Asshole, dirty twat, waste of , I hope you die....
Bridge:
Verse 3:
Red eye, code blue, I d like to strangle you
And watch your eyes bulge right out of your skull
When you go down, head first into the ground
I ll stand above you just to piss on your grave
Chorus
Outro: just play the pre-verse once
