Load up on guns, bring your friends It's fun to lose, and to pretend She's over bored, and self assured I know I know, A dirty word
hello, hello, hello, hello. . .hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello. . .hello, hello, hello, hello
With the lights out it's less dangerous Here we are now, entertain us I feel stupid and contagious Here we are now, entertain us. A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido, Yea!
I'm worse at what I do best, and for this gift I feel blessed. I met a group that's always been And always will until the end.
And I forget, just why i taste Oh yes I guess it makes me smile I found it hard. . .Its hard to find Oh well, whatever, nevermind

A5 G5 F#5 because I like you.
With eyes so dialted I've become your pupil You've taught me everything with a poison apple The water is so yellow, I'm a healthy student Indebted and so grateful. Vacuum out the fluids.

Stay Away
Tune the guitar down a half step
It starts out with drums and bass. Then the guitar enters with (all power chords):
D5 B5 F5 C5 C5 C#5 (repeat 4 times)
Then the verses come, mostly drums and bass, but during "I don't know why!" Kurt plays:
E)-------------------------- B)-------------------------- G)-----4/5-5-5-5(bend)-5---- D)-------------------------- A)-------------------------- E)--------------------------
For the chorus its just the intro over and over again.
Bridge:
D5 F5
At the end of the bridge, during the "I don't know why" instead of the normal thing, he plays:
E)-------------------------- B)-------------------------- G)-----3--3--3--3(bend)--3-- D)-------------------------- A)-------------------------- E)--------------------------
Then its played normally till the guitar shuts up awhile for the bass and drums, then right before he screams he playes all of the A, D, and G strings open, then he screams and goes into the chorus.
thats it.
On A Plain
h = hammer on p = pull off
This is undoubtedly the hardest song to figure out on the album and it's still a pain in the arse when you know how to play it. This transcription is taken from the Nevermind tablature book thing.
Intro (w/distortion) B(b5)/D# (fdbk pitch D#) ----------------|--------------------------- ----------------|----------------------h12-- --10------------|------------------h10------ ---9------------|----------------h9--------- ----------------|--------------------------- --11------------|--10h11p10h11-------------
play that second part three times and hammer-on all notes with the fretting hand.
Verse D G F E5 F5 E5 --2-------------------------------------------------- --3---3-------0----0--------------------------------- --2---2---0---0----0---2---2----2----------------0-- --0---0---0---0--------3---3----3----------------0-- --0--------------------4---3----3---2--2--3--2------ --------------3------------1----1---0--0--1--0------
it goes like this (dashes included to line up some syllables with notes): D G F E5 F5 E5 I'll start this off with-out an-y words...
then the "I love myself line...": D C5 B5 A5 --2--------------------------------------------- --3---3----------------------------------------- --2---2--0--5--5--5--5--4---4--0--2--2--2--0-- --0---0--0--5--5--5--5--4---4--0--2--2--2--0-- ------------3--3--3--3--2---2-----0--0--0------ ------------------------------------------------
D C5 B5 A5 I love myself better than you...
So the verse follows the first rythym figure twice, then the second figure for the refrain, then back to the first figure for the "I know it's wrong..." line. D G F E5 F5 E5 D G F E5 F5 E5 D C5 B5 A5 D G F E5 F5 E5
As the chorus starts, play this figure and repeat it for the chorus: D5 G5 Bb6sus2 -------------------------------------------------- --3---3-----3---3----------1--1--1--1--1--1------ --2---2-----0---0----------0--0--0--0--0--0--0--- --0---0--0--0---0--0----3--3--3--3--3--3--3--0-- ---------0---------0--0h1--1--1--1--1--1--1------ ------------3---3---------------------------------
D5 G5 Bb6sus2 D5 G5 Bb6sus2 I'm on a plain I can't complain
The bridge is the only easy part: F5 (133xxx) E5 (022xxx) A5 (x022xx) G5 (355xxx)
