D-7 is absolutely my favorite song that Nirvana played (I know it's not theirs, but it rules the way they play[ed] it). D-7 as played by Nirvana on the "Hormoaning" EP: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (apparently this song is originally by Greg Sage) Lyrics: verse 1: Straight as an arrow, defect, defect. Not straight, not so straight, reject, reject. Towards anti-social, solo, solo. verse 2: Standing on the stairs, cold cold morning. Ghostly image of fear, mayday, mayday. Gonna leave this region, they'll take me with them. Dimension Seven tuning: standard (although drop D would work very well) slow part (no distortion): E---0--------0--1--------1-- this sequence is played twice before the drums A------2-----------3-------- come in, then twice more with the drums, then D---------2-----------0----- all throughout the first two lines of each G--------------------------- verse. B--------------------------- E--------------------------- E---5-----5-----6-----6-----5-----5-----6--6-------- this is played during A------7--7--7-----8--8--8-----7--7--7--8--8-------- the third line of each D---------7-----------8-----------7-----8--8-------- verse, after which it G--------------------------------------------------- returns to the riff B--------------------------------------------------- above. E--------------------------------------------------- Then there is that pause where the last chord (E) rings out for about four to eight beats,and then Kurt turns the distortion on and doubles the tempo. He uses the following power chord progression: (REALLY FAST--X MEANS MUTED CHORD) E,E,X,X,E,E,E,E,F,F,F,G,G,G,F,F x2 then he repeats verse 1 (screaming of course) use the above chords for the first two lines, and then this for the third line: A,A,X,X,A,A,A,A,A#,A#,A#,C,C,C,A#,A# x2 repeat the first power chord progression twice with no lyrics. scream verse 2 (same chords as verse 1) guitar solo (improvise your own, it's pretty easy) scream verse 1 again repeat first chord progression 8 times more, screaming "dimension seven" in each. Sorry if this is confusing, unconventional, or even wrong. If anyone has any pointers or corrections, let me know.

I've seen these stupid shirts made by someone who wants to make money, the shirts say "Kurt Cobain - Suicide is alright", i dont knw if its right or wrong, everyone has his opinion, but making money out if it IS wrong, I'm sure we all remember Kurt for being a great carismatic artist, and he was a source of inspiriation for some of us. i dont know if you've seen it or not, but Dave Grohl went up two days ago (Sep 10th) to take the MTV award for BEST ALTERNATIVE VIDEO , and said how much he misses Kurt and thinks about him everyday, suicide is NOT ALRIGHT, it hurts, but then...

Very distorted with the mids turned up super duper (ie 10) and lows turned up also. A very muddy distortion with lots of harmonics giving it an almost pipe organ sound. A very Marshall sound, but in the OPPOSITE sense of Hendrix who had the treble turned high. Intro: Feedback on 12 fret, 1st string (high E). The following riff is the vamp and verse.

If there's anything I can do to make this more usable, let me know. (ie should I just write out the verse instead of partitioning by chord? Should I write out the whole tab instead of taking short cuts like "repeat 4 times"). No suggestion is too trivial to be seriously considered. 4) What Kurt did was fucked and he's a fucker for doing it, but he brought a lot of good music in the world and deserves to be loved for it.

If you've heard the song, it's pretty easy. The chorus and solo aren't much more difficult. Intro: F E F E Verse: F E F E Hello toilet trained, come on in F E F E Floyd observes my hairy chin F E F E "Sit down in the chair, don't be afraid."

[If you're just playing alone, just play it three time, and mute it more each time until the third time is extremely percussive sounding.] frances_.crd From: ag725@FreeNet.Carleton.CA (Rick Scaia) For "Frances Farmer": Again, just a guess... all power chrods on this one. For the chorus, I think it's C#-E-D-Bb. Like this: C# E D Bb I miss the comfort in being sad Then the end of the chorus is (starting on the Bb above): Bb-A-Bb-A-G-F# From ther you can either go back into the verse (muted G#-E-G-E-G wide open Bb) or into the bridge (Bb-D-Bb-D-E a couple times then into the same ending as the chorus). Once again, if you understand what I'm saying, give it a try, and let me know how it sounds.
