About A Girl by Nirvana guitar tab (text):# Nirvana "About a Girl" Bleach (SP34a) Copyright 1989 Sub Pop Transcribed by Chris Mosher ------------------------------------------------- This is a close approximation of the way I play Nirvana's "About a Girl", which is a close approximation of how Nirvana plays it on their Bleach album. The chords are generally 5's (i.e., no 3rd), not minor or major, except for the open G in the verse (but even that omits the 3rd usually played on the 5th string and has only the 3rd on the 2nd string). The chords played during the chorus are "power chords" in the true sense on the phrase. In the second measure (during "...vantage while."), note that the F#5 is strummed twice and then the strings are muffled with the palm of the picking hand on the second count, during which time there is feedback. This is cool. There are two different forms of the E5 chord played one after the other in the chorus (during "I can't see you"). First is the "open" E5 (022xxx). He then slides up to the alternate E5' at the 7th fret (x799xx). This is really cool. I play the A5 at the 5th fret (577xxx). This is what it sounds like to me on the album, although I know Kurt seems to play an open A (x022xx) often, so it may be that way instead. Also, I think it's easier to play (577xxx). This stuff can all be heard clearly after the lead, when there's no singing over top of it. The first note in the lead is an open E (6th string) held for a full count. There are two slides-up. The first slide, from 7 to 9, is "slow"; play the 7, but don't slide up to 9 until the next beat. The second slide, from 9 up to 12, is "fast"; play the 9 and slide up to the 12 right away during that beat. On the next beat, play the 12 on the 3rd string (letting both notes ring). Play 12 on 4th string and 12 on 3rd string again, letting them ring, and then slide both notes down on the last up-beat in the measure. Just before the lead starts, he turns up the distortion, and seemingly leaves it up during the remainder of the song. I lifted the lyrics from some other messages posted to A.G.T. They're the best I can do; I never could understand what Kurt was saying! ANY CORRECTIONS OR COMMENTS WOULD BE APPRECIATED. Thank you and have fun.
