Artist: Nirvana
Song: You Know You're Right
Album: Nirvana
Tuning: Drop D (don't tune strings down 1/2 step)
tabbed by: Everett Hoesing
Email: psycho_boy33@yahoo.com (put song title as subject please)

The verse has some variations in it but i think that is the main riff,
also I think that the 2nd and 4th verse are something more along the
lines of the picking style in the after bridge and im not sure about the
amount of times you play a lot of stuff, but i can't check because my
guitar was takin away (which sucks) I would also like to say that radios have ruined the song.

Intro ( picked behind the bridge and possibly some bend in 1st note)

Lyrics
Verse 1
i will never bother you,
i will never promise to,
i will never follow you,
i will never bother you,

After verse 1
Never speak a word agai,
I will crawl away for good,

Verse 2
I will move away from here,
you won't be afraid to fear.
no thought was put into this,
there's no way to come of this.

After verse 2
Life has never been so swell,
I have never felt this well,

Chorus ( yelled )
Pain, Pain, Hey, (spoken)
you know you're right
you know you're right
you know you're right


verse 3
its so warm and calm inside,
i no longer have to hide.
lets talk about someone else,
steaming soup begins to mount,

After verse 3
Nothing ever bothers her,
She just wants to love herself,

Verse 4
I will move away from here,
you won't be afraid to fear.
no thought was put into this,
there's no way to come of this.

After verse 4
Life has never been so swell,
I have never felt this well,

Chorus ( yelled )
Pain, Pain, Pain, Pain, Hey,
you know you're right
you know you're right
you know you're right

Outro
you know you're right
you know you're right
you know you're right
you know you're right
you know you're right
you know you're right
you know you're right
you know you're right
you know you're right
you know you're right
Pain.
