Duran Duran - Nice Tabs

Duran Duran - Nice (2004)


Tuning: Standard


This is the fifth track from the band's 2004 album, Astronaut. The song is very reminiscent
of some of the band's older material by being a very groove based song. And most
of the song can based around a few simple riffs and chords, aside from the occassional
effects and notes Andy Taylor does before some of the verses.


This is the main riff played during the chorus and elsewhere in the song. Repreat the first
part twice before heading into the D and B5 chords.

    A/F#    F#m        A/F#   F#m        D                     B5
e|---------------------------------------2--2-----2--2--2--------------------------|
B|--10-10-10-10--------10-10-10-10-------3--3-----3--3--3--------------------------|
G|--9--9--9--11--------9--11-11-11-------2--2-----2--2--2------4--4-----4--4-------|
D|--11-11-11-11--------11-11-11-11-------0--0-----0--0--0------4--4-----4--4-------|
A|--9--9--9--9---------9--9--9--9------------------------------2--2-----2--2-------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|


These are the notes Andy hits during the verses. Just repeat this as much as needed during
the verses.

D|-------------2(h)-----------------4(h)-------------------------------------|

Here's another part that's basically the main riff revamped, which is played just before the
chorus. Again, repeat as much as needed.

B|--10-10-10-10-----10-------------------------------------------------------|

D|--11-11-11-11-----11-------------------------------------------------------|
A|--9--9--9--9------9--------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|


This is a part played in the middle of the song and at the ending.

Intro:
There is nothing better than being with you
D                B5
And I'm feeling so nice

*Verses Main Riff*
Take the beautiful sting of a scorpio
A careless smile and it begins to snow
And it hurts me to think you might never know
That i've got this thing about you

Case you don't understand
There's somethin' else I meant to tell ya

*Verses Main Riff*
Stayin' up with the moon, walking home in the rain
Mixed with your perfume and never twice the same
I got a lot to lose but everything to gain
When I really think about it

You haven't got a clue
It's all that I can do to hide it

Did I already say?
D                B5
Coz you make me forget
D                B5
I might as well be brave and tell ya

*Verses Main Riff*
Now it hurts me to think you might never know
Will it hurt as much being true
I might as well be brave and tell ya
