Load up on guns, bring your friends
It's fun to lose, and to pretend
She's over bored, and self assured
I know I know, A dirty word
hello, hello, hello, hello. . .hello, hello, hello, hello,
hello, hello, hello, hello. . .hello, hello, hello, hello
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 mosquito, my libido, Yea!
I'm worse at what I do best,
and for this gift I feel blessed.
I met a group that's always been
And always will until the end.
And I forget, just why i taste
Oh yes I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard. . .Its hard to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind

Care if I'm old
I don't mind, I don't mind, I don't mind, I don't mind, I don't mind
If I don't have a mind
Get away, get away, get away, get away, get away, get away, get away

Even if you need
I don't mean to stare
We don't have to breed
We could plant a house
We could build a tree
I don't even care
We could have all three

Sunday morning is everyday for all I care and I'm not scared
Light my candles in a daze 'cause I've found god
I'm so lonely and that's ok, I shaved my head, and I'm not sad
And just maybe I'm to blame for all I've heard, and I'm not sure
I'm so excited I can't wait to meet you there, and I dont' care
I'm so horny but that's ok, my will is good

It isn't me
We have some seed
Let me clip
Your dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To please myself
I've got some rope
You have been told
I promise you
I've been true
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To please myself
Polly wants a cracker
Maybe she would like more food
She asks me to untie her
A chase would be nice for a few

Drain You
A C# F# B A C# F# B
One baby to another said I'm lucky to have met you...
I don't care what you think unless it is about me
It is now my responsibility to completely drain you
A travel through a tube and end up in your infection
D B
Chew your meat for you
pass it back and forth
In a passionate kiss,
from my mouth to yours
A5 G5 F#5
because I like you.
With eyes so dialted I've become your pupil
You've taught me everything with a poison apple
The water is so yellow, I'm a healthy student
Indebted and so grateful. Vacuum out the fluids.
B
You're my vitamins
A5 G5 F#sus4 F#5
because I like you

Stay Away
Tune the guitar down a half step
It starts out with drums and bass. Then the guitar enters with (all power
chords):
D5 B5 F5 C5 C5 C#5 (repeat 4 times)
Then the verses come, mostly drums and bass, but during "I don't know why!"
Kurt plays:
E)--------------------------
B)--------------------------
G)-----4/5-5-5-5(bend)-5----
D)--------------------------
A)--------------------------
E)--------------------------
For the chorus its just the intro over and over again.
Bridge:
D5 F5
At the end of the bridge, during the "I don't know why" instead of the normal
thing, he plays:
E)--------------------------
B)--------------------------
G)-----3--3--3--3(bend)--3--
D)--------------------------
A)--------------------------
E)--------------------------
Then its played normally till the guitar shuts up awhile for the bass and
drums, then right before he screams he playes all of the A, D, and G strings
open, then he screams and goes into the chorus.
thats it.
On A Plain
h = hammer on
p = pull off
This is undoubtedly the hardest song to figure out on the album and it's
still a pain in the arse when you know how to play it. This transcription is
taken from the Nevermind tablature book thing.

play that second part three times and hammer-on all notes with the fretting

it goes like this (dashes included to line up some syllables with notes):
D G F E5 F5 E5
I'll start this off with-out an-y words...
then the "I love myself line...":

So the verse follows the first rythym figure twice, then the second figure
for the refrain, then back to the first figure for the "I know it's wrong..."
line.
