Cold Bitch, by
Soundgarden, found as
Track 2, on
Spoonman single, being in length
5:22, hereby tabbed by
Rigel Freden <rigelf@angelfire.com>
This is a really cool song. I would advise picking this single up purely for the song if
it is available in any way. (e-mail me and I'll try to come up with an mp3 for it). Better
yet, get it from Napster!
Dropped D tuning.
b is anything between 1/4 and 1/2 bend, v is vibrato
Fades in with open (g?) string feedback and Chris Cornell screaming.
notations in par () are optional or "maybes"
Please note also that this is really the guitar tab, so the 1/4 bends
probably aren't accurate.
Funky time to start with. (~4/4 beat but difficult to count in 4/4). If you can time it,
submit the correction.
Bass--guitar is the same except for solo

(there is actually a guitar doing the bass's thing during this part too but don't worry
about that because this is the only point where there are two guitars playing at once).
play chorus 4 times
play bridge once

| One of the most underrated B-Sides ever. Sounds like a hit single or something. | |

| Kinda self-explaining, and more after seeing the title, dontcha think? Another of the finest Soundgarden b-sides, and a must listen. | |

| I find the contrast between the poetic lyics and vulgar title a bit humorous. I wonder what woman could have prompted him to write so vehemently about a person. Indeed a fantastic b-side, his voice is really outstanding in this song. | |
