Plastic Fantastic Lover Tabs & Lyrics by Jefferson Airplane
Plastic Fantastic Lover
guitar tabs lyrics
Great proto-punk song by Jefferson Airplane, originally on SURRREALISTIC PILLOW (1967)
later a spectacular live version on BLESS ITS POINTED LITTLE HEAD (1968). The only other
on the internet is extremely inaccurate, and I'm sure this tab is perfect.

Verse:
C#m
Her neon mouth with the blinking soft smile
C#m
Is nothing but an electric sign
C#m
You could say she has an individual style
C#m
She�s part of a colorful time
Chorus:
Am D
Super-sealed lady, chrome-color clothes
Em D
You wear 'cause you have no other
Am D
But I suppose no one knows
B
You're my plastic fantastic lover
Repeat Intro
Verse 2:
C#m
Your rattlin' cough never shuts off
C#m
Is nothin' but a used machine
C#m
Your aluminum finish, slightly diminished
C#m
Is the best I ever have seen
Chorus 2:
Am D
Cosmetic baby plugged into me
Em D
And never ever find another
Am D
And I realize no one's wise
B
To my plastic fantastic lover

Verse 3:
C#m
The electrical dust is starting to rust
C#m
Her trapezoid thermometer taste
C#m
All the red tape is mechanical rape
C#m
Of the TV program waste
Chorus 3:
Am D
Data control and IBM
Em D
Science is mankind's brother
Am D
But all I see is drainin' me
B
On my plastic fantastic lover
