"Softer. Softest"
Hole
MTV Unplugged in New york City/ Live Through This
this song is also known as "Pee Girl"
Ok, to give out the "Credit in the straight world", I wasn't/am not the first
one to post the chords for Eric's part, I really am not, I had this thing
printed from a long time ago and it's no longer on the song list in the Olga
thing but I didn't print out the part of the person's name which posted them
first, but I was DEFINITLY not, I am, though, the one to post "Courtney's
parts". But, another person posted Eric's parts so, I shouldn't get all the
credit for this.

Eric's parts,
Eric Erlandson is my favorite of the band Hole, I find his role in their
music very immportant since he is lead guitar, so I'm posting his parts for
this song; (for the second time)
-This part: Remove middle finger from 'e' string slowly and put it back on
the 3rd fret while palying, play softly-
Verse #1;
G G
G
I tell you everything I hope that you won't tell on mee-e-e-e
G G
G
And I'd give you anything I know that you won't tell on mee-e-e-e
-This part, after hitting the 'G' string on "..belt" upstring, do the same
for melt, sour, et cetra, et cetra.
Chorus #1;
A C G
The Pee Girl Gets the belt
A C G
Your milk makes me me-e-e-elt
A C G
Your milk is so sour
Baby, I can only cower
I can only cower
And I can only cower
You have all the power

Courtney's Parts
Since "Softer. Softest" was recorded originally in a studio and this is the
Unplugged version, the Live Through This version is softer and more vocal,
this is Courtney's parts for this song;
-Courtney upstrings A LOT! If you play guitar often like me then I guess you
have probably gotten used to upstringing on a lot of their songs, unless you
play clean versions, but oh, well, this is from the Unplugged.-
G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
I give you every-thing I hope you give it back to mee-e-e-e
G G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
I told you every-thing Just, never tell on mee-e-e-e
A Cadd9 G
The Pee Girl Gets the belt
A Cadd9 G
Your milk makes me me-e-e-elt
A Cadd9 G
Your milk is so sour
Baby, I can only cower
You have all the power
I can only cower
You have all the power
Those are her 3 chords which she plays through out the song, she doesn't play
anything during the bridge.
And that's about it,
the lyrics are;
I give you everything,
I hope you give it back to me
I told you everything,
Just, never tell on me
The Pee Girl gets the belt
Your milk makes me melt
Your milk is so sour
Baby, I can only cower
You have all the power
And I can only cower
You have all the power
I've gotta blister from,
Touching everyone I see
The abyss opened up,
It took everything from me
The Pee Girl gets the belt
Your milk makes me melt
Your milk is so so sick
Baby, your milk has a dick (said as "dye")
Your milk has a dick
Your milk has a dick (said as "dye")
Your milk has a dick
Burn the Witch, The bitch,
She's dead
You burn the witch
Just bring me back her head
The Pee Girl gets the belt
Your milk makes me melt
Your milk is so mean
Baby, your milk turns to cream (said as "cry" at every other line)
Your milk turns to cream
Your milk turns to cream (cry)
Your milk turns to cream
-screamed-
Your milk turns to cream
Your milk turns to cream
Your milk turns to cream
Your milk turns to cream
Your milk turns to cream
Your milk turns to cream
-sang softly-
Your milk turns to cream
Your milk turns to cream
This song was written about Courtney, when she was younger people would call
her "Pee Girl" b/c she smelt like pee. It's actually a really sad song when
you think about it.
