G'day, got a little bored while studying so I figured this out (for the
most part). It should be as correct as I can get it 8)
*******************************************************************************
Title: Jesus Christ Pose
Artist: Soundgarden
Here's a partial tab for one of Soundgarden's heaviest songs!
Notation:
x -muffled string.
> -accent.
Drop D Tuning
Intro- sounds like a pedal low D (more or less in free time!)
I cant remember what the bass plays during the 'power chords and
widdle-widdle-WAH' bit, but i suspect it's just the low D doubling the
power chords. It shouldnt be too hard to figure out 8)
Main verse riff:
G|---------------------------------------------------------| x lots 8)
D|---------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------|
D|-0000800808888-0000800808888-0000600606666-0000600606666-|
Spoken: "Arms held out, in the jesus christ pose"
G|----------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------------------------|
A|----------------------------------------------------6---5-3-653-|
D|-0-0012-121210-1010-1012--0-0013-131310-1010-1312---6---5-3-653-|
^^ ^^^^^^ ^^^^ ^^^^ ^^ ^^^^^^ ^^^^ ^^^^
All of the above are either 10s 12s or 13s, not 1,2, 3 etc
After " - than to bury you - whore!"
G|-------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------|
D|-xxxx1212-xxxx1212-xxxx1010-xxxx1010-|

^^^^ ^^^^ ^^^^ ^^^^
two 12's. two 10's.
Outro: same as the other bit I don't know (low D's?) followed by crazy
ad-libbing 8)
Anyway, the skeleton of a kick-arse song is here - listen to it to get the
timing etc. Enjoy!

| I thought it was also about co-dependecny. Like someone was trying to help the narrator, but the narrator didn't need to be, let alone want to be helped. The person trying to help therefore, is experienceing co-dependency and the narrator is just like "go away" | |

| it can also be about all the other rockstars pretending to be jesus onstage and making poses like him (Scott Stapp should take a hint) | |

| It says: please don't pray on me you sad little missionaries, i don't neither need to be saved by you nor am i the devil for not accepting your kind offers, you'd better start by getting your own lives in order instead of trying to ingratiate yourself with god by recruiting more people like you. | |
