Been A Son

Tabbed by Gene Azevedo

There are two major versions of this song...the fast electric version 
heard on the Lithium single and Incesticide, and a slower "lamer" as Kurt 
put it, version which I've heard but can't remember what it was on.
I'll post the tab for the faster one since it's better, but you can play 
the more mellow one on an acoustic guitar playing only the higher pitched 
strings for the verses, and playing the chorus with the normal tuned 
power chords rather than the dropped d as I will show.


Verses:
                        ^-upstroke if you play this one...all others down
E---0--0-----------0---(0)--0--------|
B---3--3-----------3---(3)--3--------|
G---2--2-----------2---(2)--2--------| repeat many times
D---0--0-----------0---(0)--0--------|
A---0--0---3-2-0---0---(0)--0---3-2-0|
D---0--0-----------0---(0)--0--------|


Chorus:

E-------------------------
B-------------------------
G-------------------------   Repeat
D---5-5--3--X-2--2-------- 
A---5-5--3--X-2--2--3-2-0-
D---5-5--3--X-2--2--------

Solo-
There are many ways to play this solo...sometimes Kurt just played the 
verse guitar part as the solo...but my version of the solo (quite 
pathetic unless you're playing with some other people to help make more 
noise!

G--6-6--4-3-1/6--6-6--4-3-1--
repeat a couple times then
G--/4-4--2--2-1--1-1-1-0-1-0--1/4--4--2--2-1--1-1-1-0-1-0
etc.

Enjoy!
