Nevermind Chords
Nevermind by Red Hot Chili Peppers is a moderately challenging guitar song played in the key of F#. It uses the chords F#9. Use the transpose and diagram tools on this page to change the key, see each shape, or simplify the chords.
I think this song is played with chorus and maybe a slight distortion.
