Note: This is my favorite Soundgarden song. I transcribed the rhythm guitar, but I have no idea how the hell Kim does all the cool stuff he does throughout this song, so if you know, please transcribe it for us all! 

There are probably a lot of mistakes in this, so feel free to make any corrections you deem necessary. This is only meant as a starting place for others; it is by no means an accurate, infallible interpretation! 

Transcribed by Ryan from Utah.
