Nirvana obviously played this song using more than one guitar, but here's how
to play it well and easily using only one guitar.
The other tabs here don't sound right to me...
Play the whole thing with distortion.

If you listen to the song carefully, you will notice kurt relaxed the palm muting
a bit towards the end of the riff, and continues to do it on every verse.

This part is not a solo. They definitely played this with more than one guitar...
It is not very accurate, it's just how I play the interlude. Listen to the song carefully
and maybe you can come up with a better sounding version.
