No actually sheet music was used. ---------------------------------------- This song has a fascinating sound that is a result of a doggedly odd tuning the only hint to which can be detected towards the end of the song when an open strum of the 12th fret harmonics is heard. Here's how to tune your guitar for this piece: (low to high): E - up one half step to F A - down two whole steps to F D - down one whole step to C G - down three and one half steps to C B - up one half step to C E - down two whole steps to C The resulting tuning is somewhat unwieldy, but for the purposes of this tune, Chris Cornell manages to pull off some mighty fine licks. The song essentially breaks down into 5 rhythm figures, which have been dentified in the following tab. Bear in mind the length of the pattern when it repeats elsewhere in the song. Enjoy this as long as you can, because I've busted many a string tuning back up to standard after I was done playing this one! Here we go: Rhy.
