Load up on guns, bring your friends
It's fun to lose, and to pretend
She's overboard, myself assured
I know I know, A dirty word

        chorus:

        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.

        chorus, solo

And I forget, just what the taste
And yes I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard. . .Its hard to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind

        chorus.

Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana

Transcribed by Tim Davis (davist@cs.man.ac.uk) from the album "Nevermind".

Here's the entire song with lyrics et al.

   To get the Nirvana sound use very heavy metal distortion plus very thick
chorus with the pickup selector in the bridge (farthest back) position.

Key:
     ~ - vibrato
      - slide down
     b - bend note until it sounds like the bracketed one
     r - release previous bend to bracketed note
     x - play strings while muted lightly with left hand

                                                                                 
{sot}
     |--     --|  repeat section between the markers.

{eot}
     |*-     -*|  ie. play it twice

Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana

Transcribed by Tim Davis (davist@cs.man.ac.uk) from the album "Nevermind".

Here's the entire song with lyrics et al.

   To get the Nirvana sound use very heavy metal distortion plus very thick
chorus with the pickup selector in the bridge (farthest back) position.

Key:
     ~ - vibrato
      - slide down
     b - bend note until it sounds like the bracketed one
     r - release previous bend to bracketed note
     x - play strings while muted lightly with left hand

     |--     --|  repeat section between the markers.
