First song figured out on guitar... for all you non-guitar players

So I don't play guitar but I have 4 guitars (get that). So I was just messing around on one of them and (with the one chord I know) I just figured out "smells like teen spirit". It prolly isn't spot on but it's close enough.


Has this happened to anyone else?

I'm soley a bass player but I learned this one chord one time and I use it for messing around and writing simple stuff for my basslines. Turns out it is the same chord used in smells like teen spirit, he just goes up and down the neck.

Learning chords can inspire a more melodic approach to bass playing:
