Welcome back! Today I wanna show you one of the coolest and easy song guitar tabs ever.
What I’m about to show you is probably one of the most popular songs ever;; you’ve probably
already heard it so many times. It was written by a band back in the 90’s and it is said to be icon
of grunge music and the face of the 90’s rock. I don’t think there’s one single guitarist on this
planet who hasn’t listened to this song.

Why don’t we start of by checking out the basic chords, with no rhythm, that will be used throughout this composition’s main riff. Let’s check it out:

Sounds familiar right? Well it is the progression of Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana;; one of the
greatest bands ever. They are the ones who popularized Grunge back in the 90’s;; they are the
ones who inspired millions of people around the world with this simple but yet deeply touching
song.

The progression itself as you noticed is extremely simple;; power chords and nothing else. Now
let’s check out the rhythm for the song:

It’s pretty much the same and follows a pattern which makes it easier to remember. I
recommend using an alternate picking technique for this. Also, whenever you see the “x” just
remove the pressure of your fingers from the string and keep playing (without moving them
away from the frets).

To end this article, I wanna show another very easy guitar tab that was composed by the
legendary band Led Zeppelin. This is the intro arpeggio from the song “Stairway to Heaven”. It
features a line cliche pattern that is played on an acoustic guitar. I recommend using your
fingers to play this, forget about the pick. Here it is:

it.
