Artist: Nirvana
Song: Lake of Fire
Album: MTV Unplugged in New York
This song is actually a cover of a song by the Meat Puppets, but I've tabbed it
the way Nirvana plays it on their Unplugged album. Listen to the song to get the
the strum pattern.
[INTRO/VERSE] (ALL CHORDS BARRED)
G F Bb G C Bb G F Bb C F Bb G
[Chorus]
G F Bb
Where do bad folks go when they die?
G C Bb
They dont go to heaven where the angels fly
G F Bb
They go down to the lake of fire and fry
C F Bb G
Wont see them again till the fourth of July
[Verse]
Dm Bb*
I knew a lady who came from Duluth
Dm A
She got bit by a dog with a rabid tooth
Dm Bb*
She went to her grave just a little too soon
C* Dm*
And she flew away howling on the yellow moon
[Chorus]
G F Bb
Where do bad folks go when they die?
G C Bb
They dont go to heaven where the angels fly
G F Bb
They go down to the lake of fire and fry
C F Bb G
Wont see them again till the fourth of July
[Bridge] (Same chords as chorus/bridge)
Now the people cry and the people moan
They look for a dry place to call their home
And try to find some place to rest their bones
While the angels and the devils
Fight to claim them for their own
Repeat first verse again and then brief solo with same chords as intro/verse, then
you're finished!
