Nirvana - Verse Chorus Verse (Guitar Cover)
Kurt really wanted to call something "Verse Chorus Verse." He wrote that phrase on the cover of at least one of his notebooks, constantly used it as a disparaging description of his songs, and briefly intended to use it as the title of the album that became In Utero. When "Sappy" appeared as an unlisted bonus track on the No Alternative compilation, it was referred to as "Verse Chorus Verse" as well. The first song to have that title, though – and the one that kept it – is the one that starts "neither side is sacred." The band recorded a rough version of it during the Nevermind sessions, and it's a lesser variation on other verse-chorus-verse songs they would come up with: To wit, its final live performance was immediately followed by the debut of "Smells Like Teen Spirit."

Lyrics: Neither side is sacred
No one wants to win
Feeling so sedated
Think I'll just give in
Taking medication
Till my stomach's full
Neither side is sacred
Crawling in the hole
[Chorus]
The grass is greener over here
You're the fog that keeps it clear
Re-inventing what we knew
Taken time is all but true
You're the reason I feel pain
Feels so good to feel again
Neither side is sacred
No one wants to win
Feeling so sedated
But I can't give in
Taking medication
Till my stomach's full
Feelin' so sedated
When I'm in my home
The grass is greener over here
You're the fog that keeps it clear
Re-inventing what we knew
Taken time is weird but true
You're the reason I feel pain
Feels so good to feel again
Hole, hole, hole
Neither side is sacred
No one wants to win
Feeling so sedated
We all just give in
Taking medication
Till my stomach's full
Feelin' so sedated
When I'm in my home
The grass is greener over here
You're the fog that keeps it clear
Re-inventing what we knew
Learn from history, all that’s true
You're the reason I feel pain
Feels so good to feel again
Hole
