Come as You Are (Live Acoustic) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Come as you are, as you were
As I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend
As an old enemy
Take your time, hurry up
Choice is yours, don't be late
Take a rest, as a friend
As an old enemy, yeah

[Refrain]
Memoria
Memoria
Memoria

[Verse 2]
Come doused in mud, soaked in bleach
As I want you to be
As a trend, as a friend
As a known enemy, yeah

[Refrain]
Memoria
Memoria
Memoria

[Chorus]
When I swear that I don't have a gun
No, I don't have a gun
No, I don't have a gun

[Guitar Solo]

[Refrain]
–ria
Memoria
Memoria
Memoria

[Chorus]
When I swear that I don't have a gun
No, I don't have a gun
No, I don't have a gun
No, I don't have a gun
No, I don't have a gun
No, I don't have a gun

[Outro]
Memoria

[Spoken]
Thank you. This was written by The Vaselines.. well, it's a-it's a rendition of an old, uhm, christian song, I think... but we do it The Vaselines way

Genius Annotation

Come As You Are was originally released as the second single off of the band’s breakthrough second album Nevermind. It peaked at number 32 on the Billboard Hot 100.

This acoustic version was the second song to be performed during Nirvana’s legendary Unplugged concert in New York. It was the band’s only real “hit” to be played that night as the band opted to play mostly covers and lesser known Nirvana songs.
