At its heart, "Lithium" is a curled-lip condemnation of blind faith and the born-again Christians Cobain knew in his youth. According to biographer Everett True, Cobain said the character in the song a "decided to find God before he kills himself." The frontman went on to say, "It's hard for me to understand the need for a vice like that, but I can appreciate it, too. People need vices." With its soft and loud sections, the song exemplifies the bipolar pop that made Nevermind great. It's unruly and unwieldy, and wasn't easy to record: When Cobain couldn't get his guitar to sound right in the studio, he threw it during a temper tantrum and began screaming. The cacophony became bonus track "Endless, Nameless."
Tuning: Standard
Equipment used: Fender Kurt Cobain Jaguar, Boss DS-1 and Fender Mustang IV amp
Lyrics: I'm so happy 'cause today
I've found my friends ...
They're in my head
I'm so ugly, but that's okay, 'cause so are you ...
We've broken our mirrors [Alt: We broke our mirrors]
Sunday morning is everyday for all I care ...
And I'm not scared
Light my candles, in a daze
'Cause I've found god
Yeah, yeah, yeah [6x]
I'm so lonely, but that's okay, I shaved my head ...
And I'm not sad
And just maybe I'm to blame for all I've heard ...
But I'm not sure
I'm so excited, I can't wait to meet you there ...
But I don't care
I'm so horny, but that's okay ...
My will is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah [6x]
[2x]
I like it - I'm not gonna crack
I miss you - I'm not gonna crack
I love you - I'm not gonna crack
I killed you - I'm not gonna crack
I'm so happy 'cause today
I've found my friends ...
They're in my head
I'm so ugly, but that's okay, 'cause so are you ...
We've broken our mirrors [Alt: We broke our mirrors]
Sunday morning is everyday for all I care ...
And I'm not scared
Light my candles in a daze ...
'Cause I've found god
Yeah, yeah, yeah [6x]
[2x]
I like it - I'm not gonna crack
I miss you - I'm not gonna crack
I love you - I'm not gonna crack
I killed you - I'm not gonna crack

  • Excellent! I still see a lot of people playing this wrong but this was pretty perfect. Thanks for uploading. The only thing i saw is that in the post chorus right after "i hate you im not gonna craaaack" there is an open e string pluck before you hit and slightly bend the 3rd from on the low E but otherwise it doesnt get much better than this as a cover. Soak this one up people. Ive been playing these things for 27 years and taught myself how to play by watching what his hands were doing on the guitar in old vhs bootlegs and stuff on mtv so i know them inside and out and upside down If you wanna know how to play it, watch this dudes hands. You wont need another video. This IS how Kurt played it live!
