Tab for Soundgarden's
Burden in my hand

this tab has two sections, a sectional tab, then a tab with the lyrics
directly under if you're having trouble with the timing. this probably is
totally correct, but I think it's pretty damn close. Also, this is the
first tab I've ever done so if you don't like it screw you.

"Open C" tuning:
