Smells Like Teen Spirit
Please give comments and feedback.
Either post on this page or email
me at Noata@hotmail.com, thanks.
Go ahead and look at the lyrics at
the bottom of the page, go ahead
and sing your ass off! I'm tired
of looking at shitty tabs on the net.
I think this is pretty damn accurate
I used labels on the lyrics so if you
are tone deaf you can still play along.
Note: If this doesn't sound like the
recording, learn to read a tab. 'Cuz
this tab's got everything...all work
is done by me which is a shit load,
even the bloody lyrics!!!!!!!
Tab Legend:
x - muted note
/ & \ - slide (up and down)
(#) - non-essential note(don't have to play it)
~ - vibrato \
b(#) - bend it's just used for the
high high notes in the chorus
which are mostly accidental(I think)
(they sounds different each time...)
Tuning:
Standard (EADGBE)
Dictionary for Lyrics(LOL):
mulatto: a child with a black and white parent
albino: a person whose skin is very white(pale)
libido: one's sexual desire
mosquito: an insect that drains blood(you should know this one...)
Tempo:
this one's for metronomes, about 80-90
you could get the rhythm easily so this
can be ignored
Play along with drum beat.

about here when distor. goes on
(Every power chord is played with downstrokes and upstrokes, if you can't tell.)
then: my shitty attempt at deciphering the high notes...

The high notes are accidental, I presume.
Sound pretty cool though :).

Lyrics:
Verse:
Load up on guns
Bring your friends
it's fun to lose
and to pretend
she's over bored
and self assured
oh no, I know a dirty word
hello hello hello how low
hello hello hello how low
hello hello hello how low
hello hello hello
Chorus:
with the lights out
it's less dangerous
here we are now
entertain us
I feel stupid
and contagious
here we are now
entertain us
a mulatto, an albino
a misquito my libido
yeah!
Hey! YAY!:
hey
hey
Verse:
I'm worst at what
I do best
and for this gift
I feel blessed
a little group
has always been
and always will
until the end
hello hello hello how low
hello hello hello how low
hello hello hello how low
hello hello hello
Chorus:
with the lights out
it's less dangerous
here we are now
entertain us
I feel stupid
and contagious
here we are now
entertain us
a mulatto, an albino
a misquito my libido

Hey! YAY!:
yay

Verse:
and I forget
just why I taste
oh yeah I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard
it's hard to find
oh well whatever nevermind
hello hello hello how low
hello hello hello how low
hello hello hello how low
hello hello hello
Chorus:
with the lights out
it's less dangerous
here we are now
entertain us
I feel stupid
and contagious
here we are now
entertain us
a mulatto, an albino
a misquito my libido
