HISTORY OF DA BOOK (For anyone who cares...)v. 1.0..........original release on 6/4/95. Posted to alt.music.nirvana, rec.music.makers.guitar.tabulature, and alt.guitar tab. It found it's way to ftp.nevada.edu, missing the rarities section however.v. 2.0..........second release on 8/11/95. Corrections made in the tab, power chord chart added, section on feedback and noisemaking added, and about 12 more rare songs added. Posted to same newsgroups.v. 3.0..........third release on 10/9/95. More corrections made in the tab, updated the section on feedback, added charts for major and minor chords. Posted to same newsgroups. Decision made by me that this will be posted bimonthly, regardless of changes.v. 3.5..........followup release on 11/5/95. Fixed some stupid mistakes on my part that probably confused the hell out of people who use the chord charts. Posted only to alt.guitar.tab and alt.music.nirvana this time around.v. 4.0..........fourth release to the web on 1/1/96, and to the newsgroups on 1/18/96. More corrections in tab, decided to kill off the "original release date" at the top as I had put that there before I had intended to keep updating this book. Added the section on websites where this book can be downloaded from as well as the section on tunings. I lost the rec.music.makers.guitar.tabulature for one reason or another, so it was only posted to alt.guitar.tab and alt.music.nirvana.v. 4.0 plus.....fifth release on 4/8/2001, added some rare songs as has

been posted before whith little alterations on lay-out. Songs added:

Blossom; Clean Up Before She Comes; Come On; In His Hands; It's Closing

Soon; My Sharona; No Alternative; Run, Rabbit, Run; The Pill; You Got

No Right.

SOME NOTES ON FEEDBACK AND NOISEMAKING

Page 6: Nirvana Songbook

When It came to making noise using nothing but his guitar, Kurt Cobain wasa geinus. In fact, IMHO, the only person who I have seen make BETTER noisewould have to be Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth. It would impossible toaccuratly re-create alot of the sounds that Kurt achives with his guitar(ie. Endless Nameless, Radio Friendly Unit Shifter, Gallons...), sincealot of it was improvised. This is why this book may actually be better thanpublished tabs...they actually try to tab noise jams like the RFUS outro andthe Scentless Apperentice solo, and it is very frustrating when you are doingexactly what the book tells you and it still sounds wrong. My solution tothis problem: create your own feedback.As you may or may not know, feedback is that ringing noise that occurs whenyou play at a high volume, or play too close to the amp, or leave your guitarsitting next to the amp when it is still turned on. There is some scientificexplination for this, like it makes the coils in the pickups vibrate, orsomething like that. Basically, it occurs in strange situations when youdon't want it, but when you DO want it it is a pain in the ass to get!There are several techniques that I use that produce decent feedback/noise.One is bending. I find that if you do a double bend on your high E and Bstrings anywhere above the 10th fret (as you see in Endless Nameless), itwill be loud and ring, and (if you're lucky) echo.Another is harmonics. Feedback will usually occur instantly when you strikea high pitched harmonic. This is quite effective when you have to come upwith a certain pitched feedback, if you can remember which harmonics makewhich pitches. It doesn't work as well with 12th and 7th fret harmonics,though. If you want GOOD feedback, go for 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 9th fretharmonics. Sometimes, depeniding on the kind of guitar you have, you willbe able to take harmonics above the pickups. If you are able to do this, gofor it, cause you can't really get any more high pitched than that!One method I have seen Kurt do in concert (you can witness this before Breedon the MTV Live And Loud vid) that is quite effective is tapping the back ofthe neck. You should try hitting the upper neck with either your pick orfingers, behind the first or second fret. If the destortion is high enough,it will produce a cool sounding rumbling noise at first, then becomescreeching feedback.Another technique used in Oh The Guilt is picking the strings above the nutor below the bridge. It produces various high-pitched rings, which produceexcellent feedback. However, the strings must be struck somewhat hard, orthe sound may not be picked up.If you would like to use the natural approach, simply turn up the volumeon your amp. It will eventually start ringing, and as you move your guitararound in different positions the pitch will change. If you're lucky,you may actually be able to pick up radio stations with this method!Two things you should be aware of when doing this are:1) Feedback occurs much more readily when the pickups are facing away from the amp. An easy thing to do is take off your guitar and place it up against the cabinet with the strings facing outward. This would save lots of waiting.2) Different pickups create different pitch feedback. You may want to try

Page 7: Nirvana Songbook

using your pickup switch, especially if you have a strat or a strat imitation. This can produce anything from a low growl to a high scream. Again, you should expariment on your own.There are various other noisemaking methods...so many that I will not be ableto list them all. Two that must not be ignored, however, are the whammy barand the pick scrape.The whammy bar is probably the most useful tool in producing noise. What itis is a bar attached to the bridge of the guitar which, when depressed,lowers the pitch of the strings by raising the bridge. You can hear this inaction at the end of Stay Away, where Kurt drops the strings as far as theygo, raises them, and drops them again and again. However, dropping the pitchof the strings is only one use for the whammy bar, as it can be used to makeexaggerated vibratos and other such noises. Depending on what model guitaryou have, the whammy bar will be built differently. On strat models, thebridge is pretty well attached to the guitar, and the bar will only be ableto lower the pitch. However, on Ibanezes, the bridge is just sorta floatingthere, so the whammy bar can be used both ways...raising AND lowering thepitch. There is really not a hell of lot I can say about HOW to use this asit isn't a very complicated tool. (It has two positions...up and down.How much more simple can it be??) You hould just fool around with your ownand get familiar with it and the noises it can make and soon you will be ableto produce decent noise with it.Pick scrapes are very underrated, as they seem to produce one kind of noise.Actually, there are many things you can do with pick scrapes aside from justscraping the low E or A strings and making the same old usual sound. One isscraping actually above the pickups (which Kurt does at the end of HeartShaped Box) which produces a more high pitched sound. Another is using thesame top to bottom method on your higher strings (B and high E). Or youcould just scrape all the strings over the pickups. This is another methodthat must be exparimented with so that you can come up sounds that you like.Of course there are various other methods that Kurt used that I'm not goingto get into, basically because my knowledge of feedback and noisemaking isvery limited compared to his. However, this should provide you with somewhatof a guide so that you too can make noise with your guitar!

INCESTICIDEAll of the tunings on this album are a little bit off. By this I mean thatwhen my tuner says that my guitar is in tune, the songs sound about a 1/4step lower. This may be the result of something that happened in the studio.These are all fairly accurate tabbings in standard tuning.

Some explanations:1.For the intro and RIFF 7 you must fret the low E string on the 1stfret, prebend a whole step and then release (that's what the R means).2.Blank columns (as in Riff 1) do not count in timing. They are usedonly to distinguish the tab numbers.3.p=pull-off h=hammer on

Song flow and lyrics:

[Intro] X3[Riff 1] X2w/Riff 2Has he lost his mind? Can he see or is he blind?Can he walk at all? Or if he moves will he fall?[Riff 1]w/Riff 2Is he 'live or dead? Has he thoughts within his head?We'll just pass him there. Why should we even care?[Riff 3][Riff 1] X2w/Riff 2He was turned to steel in a great magnetic fieldWhere he traveled time for the future of mankindw/Riff 4Nobody wants him. He just stares at the world[Riff 5]w/Riff 4Planning hisvengeance that he will soon unfold[Riff 5][Riff 1] X2w/Riff 2Now the time is here for Iron Man to spread fearVengeance from the grave kills all the people he once savedw/Riff 4Nobody wants him. They just turn their heads[Riff 5]w/Riff 4Nobody hepls him. Now he has his revenge[Riff 5]{Double Time}[Riff 6] X2[Solo 1][Riff 6] X2{Half Time}[Riff 5] X2[Riff 1] X2w/Riff 2Heavy bolts of lead, fills his victims full of dreadRunning as fast as they can, Iron Man lives again[Riff 3]{Double Time.
