Circle of Power
(words by Hiro Yamamoto, music by Kim Thayil)
This is the song that ends Side A on -Ultramega OK- and it is sung by
Soundgarden~s then bassist, Yamamoto. Quite an interesting song. Anyway,
basically the main riff for this song is:
E --------------------
B --------------------
G --------------------
D --------------7--7--
A -7--7-5--5-5--------
E --------------------
This opens up the song and appears during the interlude. Blah blah blah
blah blah blah. Anyway, the chords played through are the power chords:
F#5, A5, G#5, G5
These chords are played on the A string, meaning F#5 should be played
on the ninth fret of the guitar and it goes up to A5 on the twelfth, then
going down to G#5 then G5. After that a riff comes that plays the root
note of these chords on the E string like this:
A -------------------------------------------------
E -2-2-2-2-2-2-5-5-5-5-5-5-4-4-4-4-4-4-3-3-3-3-3-3-
That is basically the song in a nutshell and rest is future.
