No Attention tab by Soundgarden

S O U N D G A R D E N  "NO ATTENTION"
>From the album Down On The Upside
Lyrics & music by Chris Cornell

I'm Heather and I tabbed this. I have not seen this tabbed anywhere else
so I thought I'd tab it myself. It took ages to figure out but it sounds
good to me. This song is great and sounds good with plenty of overdrive.
I think the solo's a bit out, but I'm working on it. Anyway, here it goes...

Tune your guitar to (low to high) DADGBE

Riff 1

D--14-14-12-9--9--12-12-10-7--7--14-14-12-7----

Repeat Riff 1 for the intro and verse parts.
If you listen to the song on the CD you'll be able to work out where the
words fit in.

Chorus

D-------------------------------------------------------------------

E-----------------------

G-----------------------
D---------7-----7~~~~
A-(5)-7-9---7-9---------
D-----------------------

~~~~ means vibrato.
For the chorus it is not always necessary to play the A string at the
5th fret, so I have put it in brackets.

I'm not really sure whether I should call that bit a bridge, but I will
just to label it when I put the song in order

After this bit just play with a few notes around the 7th, 9th and 10th
frets. Then play Fig 1 before it slows down. When it slows down it is
basically Riff 1 played slowly. Then comes the outro riff:

Riff 2

E------------------12-12-12-12-12-(I dont think this is right so-------
B------------------12-12-12-12-12--try whatever you think fits)------
G-------------------------------------------------------------------
D-----0-------------------------------------------------------------
A-----0-let ring------------------------------------------------------
D-----0-------------------------------------------------------------

To finish it just play with a few more notes (it sounds good improvised).
Voila! I took the pleasure in putting the whole thing in order...
