The riffs you’ll learn in this guitar lesson are from “In Bloom”, “Lithium”, “Come As You Are”, “All Apologies”, and “Smells Like Teen Spirit”. As you go through this video, be sure you download the PDF sheet music so you can follow along. To make sure you get the most out of this lesson, it’s usually best to only pick one or two riffs to learn at a time. That way, you won’t get overwhelmed by learning too many new things at once.
