Official NIRVANA Tablature & Sheet Music »



Tuning - Standard
The exact intro is different when it's not disrorted
but you can figure it out, he plays this when it is.

Main Riff/Intro 6x and 10x at the end
(on intro hit the C#5 6 times at the end)
I laugh at you people who think there's a G5 in this by the way.
F5 A#5 G#5 C#5
G--------x-x-x-x-3-3-----------x-x-x-x-6-6-------------------------
D-3--3-3-x-x-x-x-3-3-0--6--6-6-x-x-x-x-6-6-0-----------------------
A-3--3-3-x-x-x-x-1-1-0--6--6-6-x-x-x-x-4-4-0-----------------------
E-1--1-1-x-x-x-x-----0--4--4-4-x-x-x-x-----0-----------------------

Verse 6x
(not e ---1-
B -1---....)
-for those who got offended and wrote on corrections
how i said its wrong. I DIDN'T! nice misinterpretation
though. im simply saying its not played like that.
Though they're obviously the same notes.

B----6----------------------------------
G--5------------------------------------

Pre-Chorus (hello, hello, hello, how low?)
(slightly distorted) 4x and on 4th one wait after
the third "hello" and go into main riff

B---6-------6-------6-------6-------
G-5---5---5---5---5---5---5---5-----

Post-Chorus 2x (not an E5)
F5 A#5 G#5
G---------------3b--------------------------
D-3--3--3-3-4-4----3--3--3-3--8--8-8-6--6---
A-3--3--3-3-4-4----3--3--3-3--8--8-8-6--6---
E-1--0--1-1-2-2----1--0--1-1--6--6-6-4--4---

Solo (exact way played) 2x
this is different than the other solos, you can
play it so many different ways, but the exact way
goes like this, same notes, but exact, he did this
in the studio. (download SNL performance on kazaa
for evidence although listening should be enough)

B----4-6---4-4b-2-1--2-1---------------------
G--5-----1--------------------3-1--3-b3--1-0-(the bends are full bends)
D--------------------------------------------

Solo Part 2 4x (not 6-5-6-5...same notes, but you can easily tell)
listen closely

G-1-0--1-0--1-0--1-0-0--------
D-----------------------3-----

This is a great song and means a lot to me...have fun, R.I.P. Kurt
