SONG TITLE: About A Girl
ARTIST/GROUP: Nirvana
ALBUM: Unplugged In New Yourk
TRANSCRIBED BY: qualitytabs@qualitytabs.tk
**********************************************************************
CHORDS:
-------
EADGBE EADGBE
E5 (022x00) F#7 (244300) <- probably the wrong name, I know
G (320003) A (x0222x)
C# (x4666x) C (x3555x)
C#/G (44666x)
Yes, I know this song was originally on Bleach, but I don't have
my Bleach CD right now, so I'm transcribing it from the Unplugged
CD. The E5 chord used here is used in many Nirvana songs, the best
way to play it is to first put your fingers in a normal E chord
position (022100) then lift your index finger slightly so it
dampens the G string. To play along with the CD you must tune
your guitar one note down.
INTRO:
------
E5 G E5 G E5 G E5 G
E5 G E5 G E5 G E5 G
VERSE 1:
--------
E5 G E5 G
I need an easy friend
E5 G E5 G
I do with an ear to lend
E5 G E5 G

E5 G E5 G

You should play the chords in the first 2 lines

D|-----6-6------6-6---4-4-4--------------|
A|--4--4-4------4-4---4-4-4--------------|
E|-----------4--4-4---2-2-2--------------|
CHORUS:
-------
C# C#/G# F#7
Take advantage while
C# C#/G# F#7
You hang me out to dry
E5 A C E5 G E5 G
But I can't see you every night for free
E5 G E5 G
I do
VERSE 2: [play like verse 1]
--------
I'm standing in your line
I do hope you have the time
I do pick a number too
I do keep a date with you
REPEAT CHORUS
GUITAR-SOLO:
------------
E5 G E5 G
E|--------------------------------------------|
