Subject: HUNTED DOWN by Soundgarden
This is the first song off of Soundgarden's "Screaming Life" EP. It's quite
simple to play if you work with it.
The Main Riff goes:
E ------------------------------|
B ------------------------------|
G ------------------------------|
D ------------------------------|
A ------------------------------|
E -1--1-1-4-4-4-2---2-2-3-4-3-2-|
In the introduction you play that eight times (for the last time, do not play
the -2-3-4-3-2 part, only play -1--1-1-4-4-4-2---2- and hold the last note)
After that the guitar plays the chords:
Ab//////// Bb//// B///
You basically play these two parts throughout the song, for the choruses, you
play the Ab, Bb, B part at a longer frequency meaning:
Ab//////////////Bb////////////B////
The lyrics (I think are):
They saw you today as you were leaving
And they run to hunt you down
Dogs lead the chase as you are bleeding
They run to hunt you down
Your narrow escape
Has wiped the smile right from your face
Those stardogs howling
Run to hunt you down
You smile as you look in the mirror
Tears have left your eyes
Your face has a different experience
Formal and disguised
Your narrow escape
Has wiped the smile right from your face
Those stardogs howling
Run to hunt you down
Yeah,
I said run just to hunt you down
Right now, right now, right now, right now
Hey!
Hey!
For the final part (Hey! Hey!), the guitar plays Bb/B///, Bb/B/// and fades
out.
