Lithium Intro

Nirvana

Text File

Lithium by Nirvana
many say its in drop tuning but this is standard and it sounds great. even though it 
like it, there is no bass in intro.

Chorus(Bass starts here,"Yeah,Yeah..." )  my phrasing here is a little off. I think
G|----------------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------------|
A|----------4--4/7-7-7-0-3--3-3-3-5-5-0-2--2-2-2-5-5-0|
E|-0--0-4--4------------------------------------------|

Verse ("I'm so happy...")
G|-----------------------------------------|
D|-------------------5--5/7-7--------------|
A|-7--7-6--6-4--4-------------2-2/5-5-5-5--|
E|---------------5--5----------------------|

Bridge("I like it, I'm not gonna crack...")
G|---------------------------------------------------|play twice
D|-------------------------5h7-7-7--5-5--------------|
A|-------3--3-3----3-3--5h7----------7-7-5-3-0-3-0-3-|
E|-5--5-5-------5-5----------------------------------|
(third time, play with ending and go back into verse)
G|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-----------------------5h7-7-7--5-5------------------------------------------|
A|------3--3-3---3-3--5h7----------7-7-5-3-0-3-0-3/5-5-5-5-5-5-52-2-2-2-2------|
E|5--5-5------5-5---------------------------------------------------------0-3--|

Last Verse Variations(On the first and last riffs of the last verse, Krist
throws in a few extra notes to liven it up. Nothing big, but its there.
Listen to the CD to see what I mean.)

First Riff Variation-No HUGE change, but it's there if you listen
G|------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------5--5/7-7--------------|
A|-7--7-6--6-4--4-------------0-2-2/5-5-5-5-|
E|---------------5-3-3----------------------|

Last Riff Variation-Once again, it's there just listen
G|---------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------5-5-7-5--5-5-7-----------------|
A|-7--7-6--6-4--4--------------------0-2-2-2-5-5-5-5-|
E|---------------5-3-3-------------------------------|
