Pleura by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard
Pleura
Tuning: E A D G B E
As with a lot of Gizz's stuff, this song is played on microtonal instruments. I tabbed this out on a
24 TET guitar fretted the same way that King Gizz fret theirs. There will be microtonal notes in this tab
which will be written in brackets e.g. (X.5). For example, the fret halfway between the first and second
frets would be written as (1.5) on the tab.
I tabbed this in the Flying Microtonal Banana tuning as I assume that's what they used for this song too.
It's C#, F#, C#, F#, B, e.
This is a trick song in some parts as its quite fast and there's a lot of notes being played.
Slow it down and you'll get it.

Bone stock brewed up
Graveyard shoot up
Came in trapdoor
Thrown up on the floor
Servants of the lord of lung slaughter
The Necromancer
Woo
Orange baby always squealing
Cradle snatch, the new world fading
The final test, it takes your breath
Desecrates our grave
Drink the blood of that you spill
Underneath the whippoorwill
One more piece of Jenga to pull
Then Necromancer will thank us all
Eager to assimilate
And I choose you to walk on your Pleura
Drink the blood of that you spill
Underneath the whippoorwill
One more piece of Jenga to pull
Then Necromancer will thank us all
Suck the life from what you love
I learnt that from the orange one
No one to answer to after the fall
Necromancer will dance on us all
Drink the blood of that you spill (Pleura, Pleura Pleura)
Underneath the whippoorwill (Pleura, Pleura, Pleura)
One more piece of Jenga to pull (Pleura, Pleura, Pleura)
Then Necromancer will thank us all
Eager to assimilate
And I choose you to walk on your Pleura
Cheat me out of living my life?
I exercise my right to die
