This one is not as acurate as the D.7. I did earlier. It's because
this version is live and I had a hard time making out certain parts
especially the solo.  It's decent enough to play with a band, I feel,
so don't be discouraged.  It will help you if you have this version
available to listen to (especially for playing the solo since it's
kind of played rather loosely and even has a little swing to it). I
still don't know if the majority of the lyrics are correct. I couldn't 
make out what Kurt was singing.  He mumbled more than my ears could 
distinguish.  If anyone has these lyrics please post them and mail
me a copy too, if you don't mind.
