Creep (acoustic)
From MTV Unplugged
Scott Weiland, Robert DeLeo

Stone Temple Pilots
Core
1992

This song was I think STP's most popular song
off the Core album.  This version was broadcast
on MTV's Unplugged.  I am just going to
put up chords, because there isn't really a tab
except for the verse.  Have fun!

This is the chorus tab.  It is repeated for
the duration of the chorus:

Im half the man I  used to be     (I feel as the dawn it fades to gray)      
   Em      D/F#    G       Am        Em      D/F#    G       Am
   +       +       +       +         +       +       +       +

VERSE:

Em7              C/G   B7             Em7
   Forward yesterday   makes me wanna stay
                   C/G    B7             Em7
What they said was real   makes me wanna steal
             C/G             B7           Em7
Livin' under house guess I'm livin' I'm a mouse
                C/G         B7             Em7
All's I gots is time got no meaning just a rhyme


C/G              B7                    Em7
Take time with a wounded hand cause it likes to heal
C/G              B7                   Em7
Take time with a wounded hand guess I like to steal
C/G              B7                    C               D
Take time with a wounded hand cause it likes to heal I like to steal

CHORUS
I'm half the man I used to be (well I feel as the dawn it fades to gray)
I'm half the man I used to be (well I feel as the dawn it fades to gray)
I'm half the man I used to be (well I feel as the dawn it fades to gray)
I'm half the man I used to be half the man I used to be

Em7...

(the verse continues as above)
Feelin uninspired think I'll start a fire
Everybody run Bobby's got a gun
Think your kinda neat then she tells me I'm a creep
Friends don't mean a thing guess I'll leave it up to me

Take time with a wounded hand cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand cause it likes to heal I like to steal

CHORUS

Em7...

Half the man

C/G...
Take time with a wounded hand cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand cause it likes to heal I like to steal

CHORUS
(hold Am, then end on Em7)
