About a Girl
Kurdt Cobain

Nirvana
Unplugged
1994
This is an obvious candidate for my page because
it is a great song for beginners.  The chords are
simple, and it is a really good song, which
originally appeared on the Bleach album.
Cobain does it tuned down a half-step, so his low
string is Eb.  Lyrics provided by Michael Gundlach.


Tune Down 1/2 Step: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb There's not much to this song. Basically it is E G with changes during the chorus. INTRO: |: E G :| E G E G I need an easy friend E G E G I do... with an ear to lend E G E G I do... think you fit this shoe E G E G I do... won't you have a clue C#5 G#5 F#5 I'll take advantage while C#5 G#5 F#5 You hang me out to dry E5 A5 C5 But I can't see you every night E G Free |: E G :| I do I'm standing in your line I do... hope you have the time I do... pick a number too I do... keep a date with you I'll take advantage while You hang me out to dry But I can't see you every night Free I do
