Nirvana – you know you´re right
Eb
Tuning:
F#5
I would never bother you
I would never promise to
I would never follow you
I would never bother you
D5
Never speak a word again
E5
I will crawl away for good
F#5
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
D5
Things have never been so swell
E5
I have never felt this well
F#5 D5 E5
Pain! (x3)
F#5
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
D5
Nothing really bothers her
E5
She just wants to love herself
F#5
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
D5
Things have never been so swell
E5
I have never felt this well
F#5 D5 E5
Pain! (x3)
F#5
You know you're right (x3)
