         F        Bb       Ab  C#
Here we are now, we're Nirvana
     F         Bb    Ab  C#
A garage band from Seattle

Verse 3: (No chords until *)

And I forgot the next verse
Oh well I guess it pays to rehearse
The lyric sheet's so hard to find
What are the words, oh nevermind

Pre-chorus:

*           *           *           *
Don't know, don't know, don't know, oh no.
*           *           *
Don't know, don't know, don't know

Chorus:

Well I'm yellin' and I'm playin'
And I don't know what I'm sayin'
What's the message I'm conveyin'?
Can you tell me what I'm sayin'?
So have you got some idea?
Didn't think so, well I'll see ya

Outro: Chorus Riff

Sayonara, sayonara
Ayonawa, nodinawa
hodinaya, yodinaya
yaddayadda, yaaahyaaah
Ayiyaaaaah! (cough)
