Big Long Now
(by Kurdt Kobain)
This depressing song is off of -Incesticide-. I think it was cutely and
perfectly written not just for simplicity but for the feel of it. I do
not know. The verse riff is:
E ---------------
B ---------------
G -------------0- this is played over and over again. The unopen strings
D -----0--------- are played palm muted while the open string are played
A ---8---8---8--- normally.
E -9-------9-----
The song goes:
(Riff)
It~s not cold enough

(Riff)
This continues on for another verse and chorus and that is basically the
whole song.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official NIRVANA tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
