"Marigold" by Nirvana

This song is pretty easy to play but it is a really good song. Do 
not play the full chords I have written below play them like Kurt
always used to play his chords bits and peices of each chord are 
played at a time in this song it's usually the highest three notes.
Or you can follow the tab.

Although I have the tab for the song below I would like to know who
wrote it. Was it Novaselic who came up with the base riff for the song
or did Cobain come up with the base riff for it. Also I saw someone 
asking for the bass tab to it a long while back. I'm no bassist but 
I took the root notes from the chords and it seems to do the job fine.

Once again, I highly suggest finding you're own picking rythem for this
song. It is slow but I still may have not tabbed it correctley.
