Intro:
B G#m E F#
B
when I was a baby I was so happy
G#m
I played with my friends in the mud
E
Wilbur and Jack and Notice and Beaty
F#
we were a gang and you gotta believe me
B
momma would scold us if we got too rough
G#m
she didnt care she was proud of us
E
I ran around and talked to the animals
F#
tellin them stories of savage cannibals
B
then I got older and noticed a girl
G#m
first I was sure I didn't exist to her
E
I sulked around but I didnt know why
F#
then she put her cheek on my shoulder and I
B
was lookin at her and she was lookin at me
G#m
we started to smile, it was our destiny
E
Tina was her name she was my cutie pie
F#
forgot about the things that I used to like
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/w/weezer/pig_crd.html ]
B
I spent all my time followin' her around
G#m
my friends all made the whiplash sound
E
they understood they was happy for me and
F#
everyone clapped when I asked her to marry me
B
and she said yes and we felt so fine
G#m
we lost track of the passin' of time
E
before I knew it we had our own babies
F#
Gina and Shade and Kiwi and Ged
B G#m
but now, I've got to die
E F#
I've lived a good life I've got no complaints
B G#m
I'd like to thank farmer keep
E F#
for bringin me scraps so for that I could eat
B G#m
he always had a smile on his face
E F#
he didn't want to think of this day
B G#m
it's finally here...
E F#
it's finally here...oh....
B G#m
oh.....
E F#
they called me pig
B G#m
Oh.....
E F#
they called me pig
B G#m
oh.....
E F#
B
when I was a baby I was so happy
G#m
I played with my friends in the mud
