Soundgarden - Pretty Noose
Tabbed by Ryan M. Gay - mdoggie@talgrp.com
This is in standard tuning. I know that the guitarist
plays this song in an odd tuning, but this is for all
the people who don't want to re-tune :)

Intro Riffs:
1st Guitar: (Played like this. Notice only
the 2nd time you play the riff will it be any
different.)
