Smells Like Teen Spirit Tab
Since ½ the world can't seem to grasp tabbing this song, i will go to the trouble of
doing it.
First!
On Nirvana's live performances *AFTER* Mid-1992, they played with their guitars tuned
down ½ a step. It's not a big deal, but don't start whining about the tuning.
So basically
Tuning: Standard or ½ a step down.
Secondly,
I don't want any complaints, since this tab is *right*, (since it's from the Muddy
Banks Of The Wishkah tab book:])1000 thousand people would agree. I am a huge Nirvana
fan, i know my shit.

There now. That took me ages. :/
If anyone wants me to, i can tab out other Nirvana songs, but only on request.
I hope this is as clear as possible, i don't see how it couldn't be...
