Nirvana – you know you´re right
Tuning:Eb
I would never bother you
I would never promise to
I would never follow you
I would never bother you
Never speak a word again
I will crawl away for good
I will move away from here
You won't be afraid of fear
No thought was put into this
Always knew it would come to this
Things have never been so swell
I have never felt this well
Pain! (x3)
You know you're right (x3)
I'm so warm and calm inside
I no longer have to hide
Let's talk about someone else
Sterling silver begins to melt
Nothing really bothers her
She just wants to love herself
I will move away from here
You won't be afraid of fear
No thought was put into this
Always knew it would come to this
Things have never been so swell
I have never felt this well
Pain! (x3)
You know you're right (x3)
 
Nirvana – About a Girl
Tuning:E
Intro: Em G
    
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

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

Nirvana – Dumb
Tuning:Eb

Think I'm just happy
  
Think I'm just happy

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
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
