Handsome and Gretel
by Babes in Toyland, from the album Fontanelle.
Transcribed by Barrett Lady

the complete way to play “Handsome and Gretel”, including the bridge.

opening/closing verse/verse
3:  7 99 55 2 7 99 55 2 7 99 55 2 7 99
2:  7 99 55 2 7 99 55 2 7 99 55 2 7 99
1:  5 77 33 0 5 77 33 0 5 77 33 0 5 77

(verses before the chorus are the same, except they end in 
3: 55 2
2: 55 2
1: 33 0 get it?)

chorus:
3: 22~~12/12/12    
2: 22~~12/12/12    
1: 00             

(when you slide, stretch it out as far as it’ll go. It can be a very
sexy/sleazy/tense little slide, when you hesitate with the slide.)
bridge:
1: 0 232 353 23 5653 0 232 353 23 5653 (etc, etc)

that's basically it. As far as I can tell, this is the way it’s played on
Fontanelle. Perhaps there's a mistake, or a difference here or there, but
I actually think this is pretty accurate. This is all my own doing, I would
like to add, 
 so if I screwed up, go on and bitch me out.
