guitar tabs lyrics
Soundgarden - "Zero Chance"
From "Down on the Upside" Album
Standard Tuning.
tabbed by jjhand, with help from http://web.stargate.net/soundgarden/tabs/
Some rhythms are hard to time due to the changing time signature in this song. I tried
label it for easier counting.
The only difference is that 11/8 (11 beats per measure) and 7/8 bars are counted twice
fast as 4/4 bars are.
Acoustic Intro Riff (let strings ring)
11/8
