• Song:

    Nirvana

  • Artist:

    The Blake Babies

  • Album:

    Rosy Jack World

This version is my personal intrepetation of the song intended to match the
general way played on the Rosy Jack World album and by JH live solo. Jules
vary the chords a bit sometimes but I believe that this is at least a close
match to the way I saw her play the song live from a distance of three 
meters from the stage :)

Originally, I had lots of inspiration from a tab I found on the internet in 
the late ninetees that unfortunately doesn’t seem to exist anymore on any of 
the JH-tab pages or tab-pages in general (I never kept a copy so I
really don't know who to credit) – but lots of thanks goes to the person 
who did this...

The proper positioning of the chords over the text was a little tricky in 
some cases due to the beat and since many chords had to be fitted in but I
believe that it is still possible to understand the intentions (listening 
to the song should clarify this).

I hope you will enjoy the tab! /Mads
