Alright, this here is a TAB for the colormeimpressed.com site. My name is Jason "Gimmie an iced mocha...and some porn!" Warden and I am your damned Virgil as we all try to figure out how Westerberg plays stuff. Today's TAB is the elusive but delightful "Nevermind". Corrections, potty words, suggestions, and requests may be emailed to jason at benalto dot commie, or you can always find me at the colormeimpressed.com site's messageboard, under "Guitar Geeks". You'll never catch me at that whore's website! They don't know how to play geetar o'er there. Nevermind, Nevermind. You little minx of a song. You alleycat of a tune. You squirrly Max Hardcore porn star of fingerings. I have broken thee. With so many open Es and Bs, and the song in B...not to mention all the open strings I heard throughout the rhythm section, I was convinced he'd play this in open E. But no! It's in standard tuning. So instead of grabbing your white Boss tuner, you don't have to do...nothin' at all. Just rock. Are you ready to rock? There's so many chords in the song, I'm like...argh. I don't know whether to tab it all out or just give you the chord shapes and let you have at 'er. Actually I'm gonna go with the latter 'cause that's easier for me. Naming them will certainly be fun. Let's start with the intro/first verse: E* B* F#* B E2 Ebminor (kinda) C#minor (for sure) F# -0--0--0---0----0----0-----------------------------------2-----------------------------HIGH E -0--0--0---0----0----0-----------------------------------2----------------------------- -9--8--6---4----4----9---------------9-------------------3---------------------------- -9--9--8---4----6----11--------------11------------------4------------------------------ -----------2-------------------------11------------------4------------------------------ -------------------------------------9-------------------2-----------------------------LOW E No one write in and bug me about that Ebminor. I mean, that's what he plays but harmony wise it's not really an Eb minor. But I don't know what to call it. Anyway. E* B* F#*B* E* B F#* B Ab-so-lu-tion is out of the ques-tion E* B* F#* B* It makes no sense to apolo-gize E2 F#* B Ebmin C#min The words I thought I brought I left be-hind, F# So Never- There we are, up to the first Never. I think I will kinda tab out the chorus, now that I think about it. It's pretty simple. Bsus2 E5 --2--------0----------- --2--------0----------- --4--------4----------- --4--------2----------- --2--------2----------- -------2-0-0----------- MIND - ALL OVER BUT THE SHOUTING Bsus2 E5 Bsus2 E5 Bsus2 E5(round it out) JUST A WASTE OF TIME - NEVERMIND - ALL OVER BUT THE SHOUTING - JUST A WASTE OF TIME Then we're back on all those bizarre verse chords, eh? E2 F#* Ebmin B* I'M NOT - READY - AS I'LL EVER BE E2 F#* B I climb the walls, I fall into the sea E2 F#* Ebmin B* I'm not ready as I'll ever be C#min F# Bsus2 (chorus) And I suppose your guess is more or less as bad as mine Then, we roll another chorus for the road. And then the bridge! G F# -----------------------------------------------------0--0-0--0--------------------------- ------3-----------------------------2----------------0--0-0--0--------------------------- ------4-----------------------------3----------------9--9-6--4--------------------------- ------5-----------------------------4----------------9--9-6--4--------------------------- ------5-----------------------------4----------------7--6-4--2--------------------------- -----------------------------------------------------0--0-------------------------------- AND I SUPPOSE YOUR GUESS IS MORE OR LESS AS BAD AS MINE Then the part with "You wanna tell me....." is just barre chords, A and F#. The F# he does like a sus4 addon. F# -5------------------------------2--2--2-2------------------------------------------------ -5------------------------------2--2--2-2------------------------------------------------ -6------------------------------3--4--3-4------------------------------------------------ -7------------------------------4--4--4-4------------------------------------------------ -7------------------------------4--4--4-4------------------------------------------------ -5------------------------------2--2--2-2------------------------------------------------ You wanna tell me... Am I tabbing out the exact rhythm here? No not at all! But you can figure it out. Then there's the guitar solo, which is just the intro chords again - except they end on a straight F# without going to the C#min. E* B* F#*B* E* B F#* B E* B* F#*B* E* B F#* F# Then the G-F# from the bridge, and then the chorus repeated. And that's the song! Yeah I never tabbed out the exact picking patterns, but the chord shapes are all there. You'll do it! I believe in you! As a little bonus, let me advise you to never, ever rent "Gothic Vampires From Hell". Wretched. Not even the hot goth girls make up for the other 90 percent of the flick.
