Stone Temple Pilots - "Silvergun Superman"
From the "Purple" EP
tabbed by jjhand
Tuning - Drop D (DADGBE)

It is one of the heaviest sounding STP songs ever! The only bad part is how the ending 
apart, but the solo is awesome. My tab is

I believe there is a strat (chorus) and a les paul (verse chords, solo) playing on this track.
