Planet Of Sound - Pixies
00:00 / 00:00
Tabs and lyrics
Tunning: Standard (E A D G B e)
Since the other tabs for Planet of Sound were out in places I’ve put together better
I got a lot of these from the Live Pixies DVD, so I’m fairly sure that most of the
is correct. The bendy thing at the end of the chorus is probably a bit out since I can’t
it to sound quite right, but that could be due to lack of skill and/or the fact that my
is a piece of shit.

One fine day in my odd past,
I picked me up a transmission.
I turned the fission ignition,
Went looking for the broadcast.
And when I first touched the ground,
They simply told me to leave,
Was kinda hard to believe,
Cos there was no-one around

I had a talented wine,
That land of classical gas
And on the planet of glass,
They sent me skipping through time.
I got to somewhere renowned,
For canals and the colour of red.
Lots of guys just shook their heads,
Reverberate to resound

There’s a sound of milk bottles clinking just before the ‘reverberate to resound’ bit.
do this you will need two or more milk bottles.

This ain’t the planet of sound
This ain’t the planet of sound
This ain’t the planet of sound
This ain’t the planet of sound
This ain’t no Rock n’ Roll town,
This ain’t no fucking around
This ain’t the planet of sound

I met a guy in a rover,
He said its one more over,
It’s just there where you found
This ain’t the planet of sound.
