From: tinus@utctu1.ct.utwente.nl (Martijn Oversteegen)
I compiled the songs as has been posted before. I added or altered
the lyrics and corrected the songs and the lay-out a little bit.
Credits for the original TABs go to; Jesse Scott, Christopher Mosher,
Robert Wolsey, Dan Herold, Mark van 't Zet, Wouter Janssen and Guez
Ofer. Thanks for all who posted me lyrics and suggestions as well.
MTV Unplugged In New York - NIRVANA
----------------------------------All guitars are tuned down a Half-Step (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb).
On 'On A Plain', 'Something in the way' and 'All Apologies' Kurt
plays with Dropped-D tuning (Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb).
On 'Plateau', 'Oh me' and 'Lake Of Fire' he lets the Meat Puppets
play the guitar.
The positions of the chords, as played by Kurt, are given for each
song. These are the so called voicings. From left to right are the
positions on the respective strings. The chords are either notated
above the lyrics the first time or above the songs. Notes within
parentheses are single notes played on the lowest string (either
Eb or Db), these are notated as if the guitar was tuned normally.
In the TAB parts, however, parentheses mean the notes are softly
played. All the other notations are as usual (hammer=h, pick=p,
slide up=/, slide down=\, rake=x, bend=b, release bend=r and
trill=~). The TAB parts are only solos or riffs; all the other stuff
can easily be derived by ear from the chords given. Kurt either
strums the chords or picks random notes from them. Most of the time
the picked notes are from the three lowest strings.
Allthough most songs are played by two guitars, only one guitar has
been transcribed. The other plays either the same or plays the chords
as mentioned.
