Soundgarden - "Like Suicide"
From "Superunknown"
Tuning: DGDGBE
tabbed by jjhand

I disagree with some of the tunings for this tab, so I made my own. 
I wrote out both parts during the solo section. During the solo, the lead is panned left 
and the rhythm to the right speaker only so its easy to practice each part.

Intro (w/ dist, heavy reverb) - 
play 3x                                         Intro Ending

For ease of coordinating the two guitar parts, I placed the rhythm parts below the entire solo.
I'll note the solo part in each line to help you keep track.
