  "Downer" -- Nirvana
  
  Starts off with bass doing:
  
  E-----0-0-0-0-0-8-8-8--0-0-0-0-0-8-8-8-----
  
  (It sound chopped up, as does most of the song, because the entire thing
  was dubbed over top of itself with a short delay.)
  
  Then the gitter comes in:
  
  E------------5-------------------5-----------
  B--2---------5---------2---------5-----------
  G--2---------5---------2---------5-----------
  D--2---------5---------2---------5-----------
  A--2---------3---------2---------3-----------
  E--0-------------------0---------------------
  
  The verse is bass only, doing the same the intro stuff.
  
  On "Fight!", the gitter comes in again:
  
  D---10-|---------------------------------------|
  A---10-|--5--6-7-6--5-6-7-6--5--6-7-6--5-6-7-6-| the last measure is played
  E----8-|---------------------------------------|          twice
  
  Then the gitter does this (in sync w/the bass):
  
  G------------5-5-5------------5-5-5---
  D--2-2-2-2-2-5-5-5--2-2-2-2-2-5-5-5---
  A--2-2-2-2-2-3-3-3--2-2-2-2-2-3-3-3---
  E--0-0-0-0-0--------0-0-0-0-0---------
  
  Then it goes into the chorus ("Somebody served a dinner..."):
  
  G------------8----9--------------8----9----
  D--7----8----8----9----7----8----8----9----
  A--7----8----6----7----7----8----6----7----
  E--5----6--------------5----6--------------
  
  ...and the rest follows these segments, and ends abruptly on an E power chord.
