                Be Yourself - Chris Cornell (Solo acoustic)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: superted aka Øyvind Bjørndalen
Email: superted@sjefs.net

Tuning: Standard EADGBe, capo on 2nd fret.

I put this to the paper, because I could not find any correct chords for the acoustic
of this song. The one here on ultimate-guitar has incorrect chrods, an wrong lyrics, and
is a total mess! And for some reason my first attempt to upload my very first tab was 
without reason? That's just stupid!

I play it almost exactly the same way I play it on my electric guitar, with some minor
Listen to an acoustic performance of Chris and you'll get the idea if you are uncertain
it's done. Anyways, by my ear, this sounds great.

I name the chords like you're playing without a capo (with capo on 2nd fret, F becomes
G becomes A etc).

Chris strums the chords all the way through the first chorus with palm muting, but it
without palm muting aswell.
