All Apologies (ver. 4)

Written by Kurt Cobain
	  		

Tuning:1/2 step then drop D (Db,Ab,Db,Gb,Bb,eb) though it may just be 1/2 step down 
on Unplugged In NY 

(YOU COULD PICK THE OPEN STRING 'Db' WHILE PICKING THE 9's AND 12's BUT ON 
'UNPLUGGED IN NEW YORK' KURT DOES THE OPEN STRING THING AND PAT SMEAR DOES THE RIFF ABOVE.)
