NIRVANA - "the man who sold the world" Tablature

Official NIRVANA Tablature & Sheet Music »

Allright... here's my closest guess to whatever Kurt says in this song. It's a little hard
to understand 'cause I think he fired up a doobie right before he recorded live in new
york. Here it is:


We passed upon the stand
And spoke of was and when
although I wasn't there
he said I was his friend
which came as a surprise
I gazed into his eyes
I thought you died alone
a long long time ago


oh no, not me
we never lost control
your face to face,
with the man who sold the world


I laughed and shook his hand
and made my way back home
I searched far for the land
for years and years I roamed
I gazed and gazed the stand
I looked for million years- I think kurt slurs the next line and this one together and says "I mustv'e a million years"
I must have died alone
a long, long time ago


Who knows?
not me
we never lost control
your face to face with the man who sold the world


(solo)



Who knows?
not me
we never lost control
your face to face with the man who sold the world
