TEXT AND CHORDS
Intro (A7 A7 A7 D9 D9 A7 A7)
E7(9+) D7(9+) A7
Strange brew killing what's inside of you
A7 D9
She's a witch of trouble in electric blue
A7 D9
In her own mad mind she's in love with you, with you
A7
Now whatcha gonna do?
E7(9+) D7(9+) A7
Strange brew killing what's inside of you
A7 D9
She's some kind of demon dusting in the flue
A7 D9
If you don't watch out it'll stick to you, to you
A7
What kind of fool are you
E7(9+) D7(9+) A7
Strange brew killing what's inside of you
(repeat intro)
A7 D9
On a boat in the middle of a raging sea
A7 D9
She would make a scene for it all to be ignored
A7
And wouldn't you be bored
E7(9+) D7(9+) A7
Strange brew killing what's inside of you
Sorry for the solo. Hope I can add it as soon as possible. Just try some blues
scales and it should be ok.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official CREAM tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
