Nirvana – About a Girl

Tuning:Eb

I need an easy friend

I do with a hand to lend

I do think you fit this shoe

I do want you to have a clue

Take advantage while

You hang me out to dry

But I can’t see you every night

Free

I do

I’m standing in your lane

I do hope you have the time

I do pick a number two

I do keep a date with you

Take advantage while

You hang me out to dry

But I can’t see you every night

Free

I do

I need an easy friend

I do with a hand to lend

I do think you fit this shoe

I do want you to have a clue

Take advantage while

You hang me out to dry

But I can’t see you every night

But I can’t see you every night

Free

I do

I do

I do

I do

Take a rest, as a friend,

As an old memoria, yeah

Don't expect me to lie,

Don't expect me to die,

THE MAN WHO SOLD THE WORLD

Tuning:Eb

INTRO: Riff

We passed upon the stair

Dm(D5)N

We spoke of was and when

Although I wasn’t there

He said I was his friend

Which came as some surprise

I spoke into his eyes

I thought you died alone

A long long time ago

CHORUS 1:

Oh no not me

I never lost control

You're face to face

With the man who sold the world

BREAK: Riff

I laughed and shook his hand

And made my way back home

I searched for form and land

For years and years I roamed

I gazed a gazely stare

At all the millions here

We must have died alone

A long long time ago

CHORUS 2:

Who knows, Not me

We never lost control

You're face to face

With the man who sold the world

BREAK: Riff

CHORUS 3:

Who knows, Not me

We never lost control

You're face to face

With the man who sold the world

Pennyroyal Tea

Tuning:Eb

Im on my time with everyone

I have very bad posture

Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea

Distil the life that’s inside of me

Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea

Im anaemic royalty

Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld

So I can sigh eternally

Im so tired I cant sleep

Im a liar and a thief

Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea

Im anaemic royalty

Im on warm milk and laxatives

Cherry-flavoured antacids

(End on Am)

Nirvana – Dumb

Tuning:Eb

I'm not like thE5 But I can pretend

The sun is gone But I have a light

The day is done But I'm having fun

I think I'm dumb or maybe just happy

Think I'm just happy

Think I'm just happy

Think I'm just happy

my heart is broke But I have some glue

help me inhale And mend it with you

We'll float around And hang out on clouds

Then we'll come down And have a hangover...

Have a hangover

Have a hangover

Have a hangover

Skin the sun Fall asleep

Wish away soul is cheap

Lesson learned Wish me luck

Soothe the burn Wake me up

I'm not like thE5 But I can pretend

The sun is gone But I have a light

The day is done But I'm having fun

I think I'm dumb or maybe just happy

Think I'm just happy

Think I'm just happy

Think I'm just happy

I think I'm dumb I think I'm dumb

I think I'm dumb I think I'm dumb

I think I'm dumb I think I'm dumb

I think I'm dumb I think I'm dumb

Nirvana – Polly

Tuning:Eb

Polly wants a cracker

Think I should get off of her first

I think she wants some water

To put out the blow torch

Chorus:

It isn't me

We have some seed

Let me clip

Your dirty wings

Let me take a ride

Don't hurt yourself

I want some help

To please myself

I've got some rope

You have been told

I promise you

I have been true

Let me take a ride

Don't hurt yourself

I want some help

To please myself

Polly wants a cracker

Maybe she would like more food

She asks me to untie her

A chase would be nice for a few

Polly says her back hurts

And she's just as bored as me

She caught me off my guard

It amazes me, the will of instinct

(chorus)

Nirvana – On a Plain

Tuning: Eb

I'll start this off

Without any words

I got so high that

I scratched 'til I bled

Love myself

Better than you

I know it's wrong

So what should I do?

The finest day

That I ever had

Was when I learned

To cry on command

Love myself

Better than you

I know it's wrong

So what should I do?

I'm on a plain

I can't complain

I'm on a plain

My mother died

Every night

It's safe to say

Don't quote me on that

Love myself

Better than you

I know it's wrong

So what should I do?

The black sheep got

Blackmailed again

Forgot to put

On the zip code

Love myself

Better than you

I know it's wrong

So what should I do?

I'm on a plain

I can't complain

I'm on a plain

Somewhere I have heard this before

In a dream my memory has stored

As defence I'm neutered and spayed

What the hell am I trying to say?

It is now time

To make it unclear

To write off lines

That don't make a sense

Love myself

Better than you

I know it's wrong

So what should I do?

One more special

Message to go

And then I'm done

And I can go home

Love myself

Better than you

I know it's wrong

So what should I do?

I'm on a plain

I can't complain

I'm on a plain

I can't complain

I'm on a plain

I can't complain

I'm on a plain

I can't complain

I'm on a plain

I can't complain

Title : SOMETHING IN THE WAY

TUNING:Eb

Intro: F#5-D5---; (2x)

Underneath the bridge

The tarp has sprung a leak

And the animals i´ve trapped

Have All become my pets

And Im living off grass

And the drippings from the ceiling

its O.K. eat fish

Cause they don't have any feelings

Chorus:

Something in the way

Mmmm......

Something in the way

Mmmm......

Underneath the bridge

The tarp has sprung a leak

And the animals i´ve trapped

Have All become my pets

And Im living off grass

And the drippings from the ceiling

its O.K. eat fish

Cause they don't have any feelings

Chorus:

Something in the way

Mmmm......

Something in the way

Mmmm......

Nirvana – plateau

Tuning:Eb

Intro:riff

Many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau

Some belong to strangers and some to folks you know

Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand

To beautify the foothills and shake the many hands

The nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop

And an illustrated book about birds

You see a lot up there but don't be scared

Who needs action when you got words

riff

When you've finished with the mop then you can stop

And look at what you've done

The plateau's clean, no dirt to be seen

And the work it was fun

The nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop

And an illustrated book about birds

You see a lot up there but don't be scared

Who needs action when you got words

riff

Well the many hands began to scan around for the next plateau

Some said it was in Greenland and some say Mexico

Others decided it was nowhere except for where they stood

But those were all just guesses, wouldn't help you if they could

Title : OH ME

Tuning:Eb

Intro : E-D-C-E-;

if i had to lose a mile

if i had to touch feelings

i would lose my soul

the way i do

i don't have to think

i only have to do it

the results are always perfect

and that's old news

Refrain :

would you like to hear my voice

sweetened with emotion

invented at your birth?

Chorus:

i can't see the end of me

my whole expanse i cannot see

i formulate infinity

and store it deep inside of me

if i had to lose a mile

if i had to touch feelings

i would lose my soul

the way i do

(Repeat 2nd stanza)

(Repeat Refrain)

(Repeat Chorus)

Coda:

i formulate infinity

and store it deep inside of me

Nirvana – lake of fire

Tuning:Eb

[Intro]

Where do bad folks go when they die

They don't go to heaven where the angels fly

Go to a lake of fire and fry

See 'em again till the Fourth of July

I knew a lady Came from Duluth

Bit by a dog with a rabid tooth

She went to her grave just a little too soon

Flew and laid down on the yellow moon

Where do bad folks go when they die

They don't go to heaven where the angels fly

Go to a lake of fire and fry

See 'em again till the Fourth of July

I knew a lady Came from Duluth

Bit by a dog with a rabid tooth

She went to her grave just a little too soon

Flew and laid down on the yellow moon

People cry People moan

Look for a dry place to call their home

Try to find some place to rest their bones

While the angels and the devils try to make their own

Where do bad folks go when they die

They don't go to heaven where the angels fly

Go to a lake of fire and fry

See 'em again till the Fourth of July

Nirvana – all apologies

Tuning:Eb – Drop D

where_did_you_sleep_last_night

tuning:Eb

My girl, my girl don't lie to me

Tell me where did you sleep last night?

In the palace, in the palace where the sun don't ever shine

I'll shiver the whole night through

My girl, my girl, where will you go

I'm going where the cold wind blows

In the pines, in the pines

Where the sun don't ever shine

I would shiver the whole night through

Her husband, was a hard working man

Just about a mile from here

His head was found in a driving wheel

But his body never was found

My girl, my girl, don't lie to me

Tell me where did you sleep last night

In the pines, in the pines

Where the sun don't ever shine

I would shiver the whole night through

My girl, my girl, where will you go

I'm going where the cold wind blows

My girl, my girl, don't lie to me

Tell me where did you sleep last night

In the pines, in the pines

Where the sun don't ever shine

I would shiver the whole night through
