Day i tried to live — Soundgarden
The Day I Tried to Live - SOUNDGARDEN (off of the album Superunknown)
The intro is played by two guitars, one slightly distorted, the other with a clean tone....the distorted guitar's riff is played a few more times in different parts of the song. Just listen to it to get all the parts right:
guitar 1 (a little distortion):
guitar 2 (clear tone):
comes in on second measure the first cycle of the riff guitar one is playing
on fourth time play this for second guitar:
then the bass and drums come in for their little intro and during that the distorted guitar plays something close to this slowly in rythym with the bass:
then comes the main riff, and oh how nice it is:
all strums are DOWN-
I'm not sure but I think that right before the main riff is played this chord is strummed once :
e 6 B 6 G 7 D 8 A 8 E 6
the main riff is repeated it I think 5 times and then goes back into the intro riff the distorted guitar played and then back into the main riff later and then....you get it.
oh, towards the end there's a little dink of a riff that sort of hangs there until the end - I forgot to figure that out but it shouldn't exactly be difficult.
that's about it.
disclaimer: I figured ths out on an acoustic guitar so keep that in mind while you fix the mistakes....
