"Do Re Mi" - Nirvana
This is rumored to have been recorded March 25th, 1994. That would mean
that it was Kurt's last song. Any way, I believe it's played with the 6th
string dropped to D (down a whole step). The rhythm is probably off. Just
listen to the song.
I've tabbed it the way it would probably sound if it was recorded in the studio.
So don't get mad if the rhythm/etc. is off.

**Verse**
It's the same as the above part. The only difference is the rhythm. It's not as flowing, or
constant as the intro. It's probably due to his singing over it.
Also, it seems like the 7-5-7-7-7 chord is 7-5-7-7 in most cases. Isn't that a relief?

**Fill**
I'm not sure which position he's playing these notes in, but you can hear him sliding. My best
guess is the position below.

That's the whole song (other than the last chord strummed.). You just need to figure out the
rest of the song's order. Also, if you think some of this is wrong you should take time to correct
it by making a tab from this one (copy and paste to Notepad) and add/delete things.
Farewell,
