SONG: RAPE ME ALBUM: IN UTERO WRITTEN BY: COBAIN TABBED BY: TOM.B |----Key-----| This sounds accurate to me. Correct me if anything is wrong |x palm mute| !!Powerchord version NOT CHORD VERSION (i.e. A C E G)!! |~ let ring | !!Tune half-a-step down: Thanx to guy who pointed this out!! NOTE: People are saying 'you are playing powerchords at the wrong places', an A5 can be played either on 5th fret of the E string, or open on the A string. I play it on the 5th fret of E so thats how i've tabbed it. You can play it anywhere as long as you are playing the correct note. ==================================================================== Intro Eb|---------| Bb|---------| Gb|---------| Db|-x-x-x-x-| palm mute as shown; then into the main riff Ab|-x-x-x-x-| Eb|-x-x-x-x-| Main Riff Eb|----------------------------------------| (X2) Bb|----------------------------------------| Dont worry to much about Gb|---------------5-5---------------------| the palm muting and stuff, Db|-7--7--x-x-x-x-5-5-0-2-2-x-x-x-x-5-5-| listen to the track and Ab|-7--7--x-x-x-x-3-3-0-2-2-x-x-x-x-5--5-| youll hear how Kurt plays Eb|-5--5-x-x-x-x--------0-0-x-x-x-x-3-3-| the song its simple Verse 1 Eb|----------------------------------------| Bb|----------------------------------------| Gb|-------------5--------------------------| Db|----7----------(0)----2---------5-------| Ab|------(0)-3-------------(0)---5---0-----| Eb|-5-----------------0--------3-----------| Rape me...
