PIGS (3 Different Ones) Chords

Em C G (Dm>Am) Em
Big man, pig man, ha ha charade you are
C G (Dm>Am) Em
You well heeled big wheel, ha ha charade you are
C G G-F-G-Ab-A
And when your hand is on your heart
A7 [Guitar Fills}
You're nearly a good laugh, almost a joker
A7
With your head down the pigbin saying keep on digging
A7
Pig stain on your fat chin
A7
What do you hope to find down in the pig mine

You're nearly a laugh, you're nearly a laugh


Em C
But you really a cry______

Em D Em D Em D Em D

Em C G Em
Bus stop rat bag, ha ha charade you are
C G Em
You fucked up old hag, ha ha charade you are
C G
You radiate cold shafts of broken glass
A7
You're nearly a good laugh, almost worth a quick grin

You like the feel of steel, you're hot stuff with a hat pin
Am7
And good fun with a hand gun

You're nearly a laugh, you're nearly a laugh


Em C
But you're really a cry______

Em D Em D Em D Em D
PIGS (3 Different Ones) Middle Solo
(I figured out what this Em D section is, If you listen it’s just all Em for
the whole bar with a quick D at the “uh-and” of the last q-note of the
measure):
This is actually the break between measures:

| 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 uh- & | 1234 ‘ & |


Em D | Em D | Etc…

Middle Section (Talkbox Solo):

Em D Em D Em D Em D Em D Em D Em D Em D

C Bb C Bb C Bb C Bb C Bb C Bb Em ....

Em C Em C Em C Em C Em C Em C Em C

Em D Em D C B C B
|1 23 4 |1 2 3 4 |
E|---7-7--5---777—-5--|-------| |---3-3--1---333--1--|-------|
B|---8—8--7---888--7--|--%-x8-| |---5-5—-3---555--3--|--%-x8-|
G|---9—9--7---999--7--|-------| |---5-5--3---555--3--|-------|
D|---9-9—-7---999--7--|--%-x8-| |---5-5--3---555--3--|-------|
A|---7-7—-5---797--5--|-------| |---3-5--1---555--1--|-------|
E|--------------------|-------| |--------------------|-------|

These two progression repeat over and over during the guitar solo.

There’s just one variation that happens on the C > B progression, which is a
slight bend and release of the b and g strings on the first two notes:

E|---3–----3---1----333--1---------|
B|---5b(6)r5-—-3----555--3---------|
G|---5b(6)r5---3----555--3---------|
D|---5—----5---3----555--3---------|
A|---3—----5---1----555--1---------|
E|---------------------------------|

The solo culminates by ending on on an Em, which brings the song back to the beginning, with
the Em > C organ riff and the choppy guitar stabs along with the melodic bass melody.
PIGS (3 Different Ones) Final Verse

Em C G Em
Hey you, Whitehouse, ha ha charade you are
C G Em
You house proud town mouse, ha ha charade you are
C G
You're trying to keep our feeling off the street
Am
You're nearly a real treat, all tight lips and cold feet

And do you feel abused

.......! .......! .......! .......!

You gotta stem the evil tide and keep it all on the inside

Mary, you're nearly a treat, Mary, you're nearly a treat


Em C Em D Em D Em D Em D
But you're really a cry_____

Outro guitar solo over these chords:


|Em D C D|

Then it fades into the sheep sound and the first synth chords of “Sheep”
