Lounge Act
Nirvana
This is a simplified version of the song that I created for an 8-year-old student. It's played on just the 6th string. Instead of chord names, only the 6th string fret number is provided.
Playing a bass line on the 6th string is the easiest way to play a song on guitar--perfect for total beginners or kids who want to sing and play at the same time.
Intro:
/ 7 - - - / 3 - 8 - / x4 (bass only first two times)
7 3 (½) 8 (½)
Truth - covered in security
7 3 (½) 8 (½)
I can't let you smother me
7 3 (½) 8 (½)
Like to but it wouldn't work
7 3 (½) 8 (½)
Trading off taking turns
7 3 (½) 8 (½)
I don't regret a thing
CHORUS:
0 (½) 5 (½) 10 (½) 3 (½)
I've got this friend you see he makes me feel
0 (½) 5 (½) 10 (½) 3 (½)
And I wanted more than I could steal
0 (½) 5 (½) 10 (½) 3 (½)
I’ll arrest myself and wear a shield
0 (½) 5 (½) 10 (½) 3 (½)
I’ll move out of my way to prove I
5 4 (½) 3 (½)
Still
5 4 (½) 3 (½)
Smell her on you
7 3 (½) 8 (½)
Don't - tell me what I wanna hear
7 3 (½) 8 (½)
Afraid of never knowing fear
7 3 (½) 8 (½)
Experience anything you need
7 3 (½) 8 (½)
I'll keep fighting jealousy
7 3 (½) 8 (½)
'til it's frickin’ gone
CHORUS
Instrumental:
/ 7 - - - / 3 - 8 - /x2
Repeat First Verse
FINAL CHORUS:
0 (½) 5 (½) 10 (½) 3 (½)
I've got this friend you see he makes me feel
0 (½) 5 (½) 10 (½) 3 (½)
And I wanted more than I could steal
0 (½) 5 (½) 10 (½) 3 (½)
I’ll arrest myself and wear a shield
0 (½) 5 (½) 10 (½) 3 (½)
I'll go outta my way to make you a deal
0 (½) 5 (½) 10 (½) 3 (½)
We've made a pact to learn from who
0 (½) 5 (½) 10 (½) 3 (½)
And whatever we want without new rules
0 (½) 5 (½) 10 (½) 3 (½)
We'll share what's lost and what we grew
0 (½) 5 (½) 10 (½) 3 (½)
They'll go out of their way to prove they
5 4(½) 3 (½)
Still
5 4(½) 3 (½)
Smell her on you
5 4(½) 3 (½)
Still
5 4(½) 3 (½)
Smell her on you
5 (hold)
Smell her on you
