27/3/02 Updated: 06/12/03 Artist: Nirvana Title: Heart Shaped Box Album: In Utero Tabbed by: Luke Tebbutt Email: Musicboffin@aol.com Website: http://www.musicboffin.net Tuning: Drop D then down a semitone (eg Db, Ab, Db etc.) Well, after getting fed up with the crap transcriptions about, I have finally got round to tabbing it all out properly. This is a great song, very simple, but good. I have tabbed this on an acoustic, so there may be a few errors, but I'll let you sort them out if they bother you that much. There are 2 guitars in this song, I'm just tabbing one out, but its not hard for the second one (I'm just lazy!) Enjoy... Here we go!

Lyrics: She eyes me like a pisces when I am weak I've been locked inside your Heart-Shaped box for weeks I was drawn into your magnet tar pit trap I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn back Hey Wait I've got a new complaint Forever in debt to your priceless advice Hey Wait I've got a new complaint Forever in debt to your prieless advice Hey Wait I've got a new complaint Forever in debt to your priceless advice Meat-eating orchids forgive no one just yet Cut myself on angel hair and baby's breath Broken hymen of your highness I'm left black Throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back Well, there it is. 1 Guitar part and lyrics. If you want the second part, tab it yourself or buy the In Utero book. Enjoy and goto: http://www.musicboffin.net
