Seasons Tab by Chris Cornell

Seasons tab by Chris Cornell

Guitar Tab

Song: Seasons
Artist: Chris Cornell
CD: ¨Singles¨ original Motion Picture Soundtrack
Tabber: Nick Picard (cool_no9@hotmail.com)

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:
