The Man Who Sold the World - Nirvana

We passed upon the stair          [Verse]

We spoke of was and when  F  F  Bbm Bbm

Although I wasn't there   F  F  C#   C#

He said I was his friend  G#   G#   F  F½

Which came as a surprise  Bbm Bbm G#   G#

I spoke into his eyes

I thought you died alone          [Intro]

A long long time ago          C# C# Bbm Bbm

                              C# C# Bbm X

[Bridge] G# C# A C# - G# C# A

(Oh no), not me            [Link] F  F

(We) never lost control           Bbm Bbm

You're face to face               C#   C#

With the man who sold the world   Bbm X


I laughed and shook his hand     [Bridge]

And made my way back home     (Who knows)

I searched for form and land          (I)

For years and years I roamed

I gazed a gazely stare             [Fill]

We walked a million hills   F F Bbm Bbm

I must have died alone

A long long time ago             [Bridge]
