Higher Truth

Chris Cornell (1964, Seattle, WA, United States) is an American singer/songwriter and guitarist.  In 1984 he formed the band Soundgarden with bassist Hiro Yamamoto. Throughout the late 1980s and 90s, Soundgarden experienced major success as one of the major grunge bands (along with groups such as Alice in Chains, Nirvana, and Pearl Jam).  In 1990, Chris Cornell worked together with the (then) Soundgarden drummer Matt Cameron, and Stone Gossard, Jeff Ament and Mike McCready (who would later form Pearl Jam) in a project named Temple of the Dog.

Dm      G       Dm
Everytime I stare into the sun
             Dm         G     F   A
Trying to find a reason to go on
        Dm            G         Dm
All I ever get is burned and blind
G           F             G      A
Until the sky bleeds the pouring rain
              Dm         G         Dm 
When you came along the time was right
Dm                       G       F
Pulled me like an apple red and ripe
A           Dm       G       Dm
Wasnt very long you took a bite
G             F           G        A
And did me wrong and it serves me right
Dm            A         F        G
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
      Dm       G        F   A
Its taking me miles away
          Dm      A          F      G
From the memory of how we broke apart
Dm          A      Dm
Here we go round again
         Dm           G        Dm 
Every little key unlocks the door
         Dm         G      F   A
Every little secret has a lie
                Dm         G     Dm
Trying to take a picture of the sun
G        F            G        A
It wont help you to see the light
            Dm       G        Dm  
Every little word upon your lips
         Dm             G              F   A
Makes a little cut where blood pours out
             Dm          G       Dm        G      
Every little drop of blood a kiss that I wont miss
F      G       A
Not for anything
Dm            A         F        G 
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
    Dm        G      F     A
Its taking me miles away
         Dm        A       F       G
From the memory of how we broke apart
   Dm         A       C
Here we go round again
C             F                         G          A
Every single feeling tells me this is leading to a heart
     C          F                       G
In broken little pieces and you know I need this
        Dm C
Like a hole in the head
C             F                         G          A
Every single feeling tells me this is leading to a heart
   C          F                       G
In broken little pieces and you know I need this
        Dm C
Like a hole in the head
Dm            A         F        G
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
     Dm        G      F    A
It's taking me miles away
         Dm        A       F       G
From the memory of how we broke apart
   Dm         A       C
Here we go round again
Dm            A         F        G
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
     Dm        G      F    A
It's taking me miles away
         Dm        A       F       G
From the memory of how we broke apart
   Dm         A       C
Here we go round again

Nearly Forgot My Broken Heart

Am          G
On a cobweb afternoon
Em7                 F
In a room full of emptiness
Am           G
By a freeway I confess
Em7                 F
I was lost in the pages
Am        G        
Of a book full of death
Em7                 F
Reading how we'll die alone
Am                G  
And if we're good we'll lay to rest
Em7           F    
Anywhere we want to go

(chorus)
Am      C     G         Am  Asus4
In your house I long to be
Am      C    G      Am
Room by room patiently
Am   F            Am 
I'll wait for you there
G      Am         F            Am      
Like a stone I'll wait for you there
E  E7
Alone

Am    G     Em7       F

Am
On my deathbed
G
I will pray
       Em7            F
To the gods and the angels
Am               G
to the pagans or anyone
Em7                   F
Who will take me to heaven
Am           G
To a place I recall
Em7              F
I was there so long ago
Am           
The sky was bruised
G
The wine was bled
Em7                 F
And there you led me on


(chorus)
Am      C     G         Am  Asus4
In your house I long to be
Am      C    G      Am
Room by room patiently
Am   F            Am 
I'll wait for you there
G      Am         F            Am      
Like a stone I'll wait for you there
E     E        E7
Alone,Alone.......

F        C
And on I read
E                 F
Until the day was done
      Fm     Dm      
And I sat in regret
   E                   Am
Of all the things I've done
F                 C
For all that I've blessed
    E             F
And all that I've wronged
   Fm              Dm7
In dreams until my death
       E
I will wander on

chorus 

Am      C     G         Am  Asus4
In your house I long to be
Am      C    G      Am
Room by room patiently
Am   F            Am 
I'll wait for you there
G      Am         F            Am      
Like a stone I'll wait for you there
E     E        E7       F
Alone,Alone.......

NOTE: I used Gaba_P's tab as base, making some changes where I think he got it wrong. 
Then, I got some clues here and there watching YouTube videos from

Can’t Change Me

Intro:
Em  x 4

Verse 1:
Em
She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene
                                                 Am
I said don't mind, but what do you mean I am the one
                                   Em
Who will dance on the floor in the round
                  Am                                      Em
She said I am the one, who will dance on the floor in the round

She told me her name was Billie Jean, as she caused a scene
                                                           Am
Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one
                                   Em
Who will dance on the floor in the round


Bridge:
C                        Em
People always told me be careful of what you do
      C                               Em
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
    C                        Em
And mother always told me be careful of who you love
       C                                 B7
And be careful of what you do before the lie becomes the truth



Chorus:
Em     Am      Em     Gadd9/E Em
Billie Jean is not my lover
             Am       Em                 Am  Bmadd11/A
She's just a girl who says that I am the one
        Gadd11/A   Bm7/A    Em
But the kid is     not   my son
                  Am
She says I am the one
        Gadd11/A   Bm7/A    Em
But the kid is     not   my son



Verse 2:
Em
For forty days and for forty nights. The law was on her side.
                                                        Am
But who can stand when she's in demand. Her schemes and plans.
                                     Em
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round
                    Am                             Em
So take my strong advice, remember to always think twice
(Do think twice)



Verse 3:
Em
She told my baby we'd danced till three, then she looked at me
                                                     Am
Then showed a photo my baby cried his eyes were like mine
                                     Em
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round



Bridge:
C                        Em
People always told me be careful of what you do
      C                               Em
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
         C                      Em
Then she stood right by me. The smell of sweet perfume.
     C                           B7
This happened much too soon. She called me to her room.



Chorus:
Em     Am      Em     Gadd9/E Em
Billie Jean is not my lover
             Am       Em                 Am  Bmadd11/A
She's just a girl who says that I am the one
        Gadd11/A   Bm7/A    Em
But the kid is     not   my son
                  Am
She says I am the one
        Gadd11/A   Bm7/A    Em
But the kid is     not   my son
                    Am                             Em
So take my strong advice, remember to always think twice
(Do think twice)

Verse 1:

        C               G(D7)
On the silent night so out of place
  F               C
I almost lost my nerve
        C              G(D7)
When I saw you walk into my space
   F             C        G      C
A woman like you I could not replace
                  G(G7)       F
And it took some patience to catch your eye
                      D
Patience to win your heart


Chorus:

         F    C                            G(D7)
Now it feels like I don't have to worry at all
                D
It's finally forever


Verse 2:

            C                 G(D7)
There's no hill I would not climb for you
     F                 C
No bridge I wouldn't cross
       C            G(D7)
Not a moment passes in my life
             F
That you're not on my mind
   C     G    C
Together or apart
                  G(G7)       F
And it took some patience to catch your eye
                      D
Patience to win your heart


Chorus:

         F    C                            G(D7)
Now it feels like I don't have to worry at all
                D
It's finally forever


Bridge:

                F
Anytime you're lost
                 C
Anywhere you're found
             F
Anytime you want
            C
I will be around
              F
Anywhere you seek
               C
Anywhere you stand
             F
Anytime you fall
              C
Anywhere you limp
              F
Even if you break
           C              G(D7)
Anytime I can I will be there for you
                          D
I know that you'll understand
You'll understand


Verse 3:

       C                 G(D7)
Now I never would have imagined this
 F                    C
So I thank my lucky stars
      C               G(D7)
As I see you in your wedding dress
        F                       C      G    C
Never would have guessed you'd fill my open arms
                  G(G7)       F
And it took some patience to catch your eye
                      D
Patience to win your heart
        F     C                            G
Now it feels like I don't have to worry at all

You Know My Name 

&quot;Billie Jean&quot; was recorded by American rock musician Chris Cornell for his Carry On album in 2007. Cornell said of his cover, &quot;I didn't plan on it. It just sort of happened organically. I changed the music quite a bit, I didn't touch the lyrics. And it's not a joke. I took a completely different approach to it, musically.&quot; Cornell had previously performed the song live in Europe, including an acoustic set in Stockholm, Sweden in September, 2006. He later added, &quot;I was getting ready to do some acoustic shows on a promotional tour for Revelations and I just wanted to have fun with it.

&quot;You Know My Name,&quot; performed by Chris Cornell, is the theme song to the 2006 James Bond film Casino Royale. Cornell wrote it jointly with David Arnold, the soundtrack's composer. The track was leaked onto the Internet on September 20, 2006. It was the first Bond theme to be sung by a male vocalist since 1987's The Living Daylights and is the first Bond theme since 1965's Thunderball to be sung by a male soloist.

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,

         D                 A                          
I'll confess tonight your all thats on my mind
        Bm            A                   D
I know these roof top nights could last forever.
              A                            Bm
we watched the seasons change, we saw the distance pull us away,
           A
from all we shared together.

D                       A
Right now is all we have you better make this count

I think back to the nights I looked into your bright green eyes and you said,
    Em    A
lets run away.
D                             A                             Bm

D                    A
I picked apart every word that you said
  Bm                              A
I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty
D                         A
the way you are leaves me counting the days
        Bm                            A
till the next time this distance will be a memory

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

Gonna Be A Long Time

It takes a while to get used to the rhythm. In the verse the
time signature goes 3/4 for 2 bars then 2/4 for 1 bar and then
repeats.

Fast Car

C#
There's a portrait
     Ab
In a back room
           F#
Which I'll keep for days upon
          C#
Which I relent 
              B
And gaze for hours on
    Bbm                  F#
The muscle, skin and bone
         Ab
Of some imaginary friend

F# Ab F#

        C#
So how about it 
        Ab
Show me please 
           F#
How I will look in twenty years
           C#
And let me please 
          B
Interpret history 
       Bbm        F#
In every line and scar 
               Ab                  
That's painted there in front of me

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

           C#
It doesn't matter
         Ab
What I'm thinking
       F#
What I tell myself to do
         C#      F#
I end up calling

       C#
I stay in to
                   Ab
Defrost the fridge
        F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
             C#
A feeling of dread
              B         
At least when she's around
    Bbm
The trouble's there
     F#                        Ab
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother
       F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.
