------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dumb (unplugged) ? Nirvana ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: SsPunk Email: Lithium_monkey@hotmail.com This is because all the other versions are wrong. This is the EXACT way its played on unplugged, The album version is in standard tuning. C| = chords S| = strumming pattern thing d = Downstrum u = Upstrum Tuning: Eb (low to high Eb Ab Db Gb Bb eb) Note: the chords are what they would be if the song was in standard tuning. Intro/verse riff: C| E5 A5 G5 C5 | eb|---------------------------------------------------------------| Bb|---------------------------------------------------------------| Gb|---------------------2---2---------------------------5---5-----| Db|---------2-----------2---2---------------5-----------5---5-----| Ab|---------2-------0-----------0-----------5-------3-----------3-| Eb|-0-----------0-------------------3-----------0-----------------| Chorus: C| Em | Em | G | G | S| d d u | d u d | d u d u | d u d | Bridge: C| B5 | B5 | D5 | D5 | S| d d u | d u d | d u d u | d u d | Outro: same as intro But you could just play these open chords: Em A G C Chords Used: Em: 022000 E5: 022XXX G: 320003 G5: 355XXX A: X02220 A5: X022XX B5: X24422 C: X32010 C5: X355XX D5: X57755 Lyrics: Verse 1: I'm not like them But I can pretend The sun is gone But I have a light The day is done But I'm having fun Chorus: I think I'm dumb or maybe just happy Think I'm just happy Verse 2: my heart is broke But I have some glue help me inhale And mend it with you We'll float around And hang out on clouds Then we'll come down Chorus 2: And have a hangover... Have a hangover Bridge: Skin the sun Fall asleep Wish away The soul is cheap Lesson learned Wish me luck Soothe the burns Wake me up Outro: I think I?m Dumb, I think I?m Dumb
