  Well, it's been a while since I've posted anything to the archive, and I 

  noticed this song wasn't there, so I'll give it my best shot.  As with 

  all Alice-in-Chains songs, you must tune down 1/2 step to play this 

  song.  Note:  I was too lazy to tune down 1/2 step, so parts of this 

  (especially Rhy. Fig. 2) aren't totally accurate, but the bass (root) 

  notes are definitely correct.  Here goes:

  

  Rhy. Fig. 1

  

  Gtr. I

  

  Eb----------------|--------3------|---------------|3-------3------|

  Bb----------------|----------3----|---------------|--3-------3----|

  Gb-----0-----0---0|----0-------0--|----0-----0----|----0-------0--|

  Db---0-----0------|--0------------|--0-----0------|---------------|

  Ab----------------|---------------|------3-----6--|---------------|

  Eb-6-----5-----4--|3-----3-------3|6--------------|------3-------3|

  

  Gtr. II

  

  Eb---B----slow rel|---------------|---------------|---------------|

  Bb-10-(11)--------|(8)------------|---------------|---------------|

  Gb----------------|---------------|---------------|---------------|

  Db----------------|---------------|---------------|---------------|

  Ab----------------|---------------|---------------|---------------|

  Eb----------------|---------------|---------------|---------------|

  

  The (8) is a ghost note.  As you're releasing the bend on the 10, lift 

  up your finger so that the 8 sounds.  In a way it's a VERY gentle 

  pull-off.  You can also pick it softly if you want, I guess.

  Eb-----3-----3---3|----3-----3---3|----3-----3----|2-------232----|

  Bb---3-----3------|--3-----3------|--3-----3------|3-----------3--|

  Db----------------|---------------|---------------|0--------------|

  Ab----------------|---------------|---------------|---------------|

  Eb----------------|---------------|---------------|---------------|

  

  The 232 thing is just a triplet, and I wanted to stick to the pattern of 

  two dashes per eighth note.

  Now for the structure of the song:

  

  Rhy. Fig. 1  4x

  Rhy. Fig. 2  2x

  Rhy. Fig. 1  2x

  Rhy. Fig. 3  4x

  Rhy. Fig. 4  4x

  Rhy. Fig. 1  2x

  

  That's the whole song.  No lyrics, of course.  I love posting 

  instrumentals.  :)  Comments, corrections, gifts, donations, etc. may by
