Song: Cochise
Band: Audioslave
Album: Audioslave
Composer: Tom Morello
Lyrics: Chris Cornell
Tab Author: R. Cazares (cattlehead@hotmail.com) claims this work.

Here's the tab for the first single of Audioslave's
self-titled debut. The song is called "Cochise".

Key:

/= slide up
\=slide down
b= bend
r= release

Intro:
You're pretty much on your own for the intro.
All I know is that during the very beginning,
all Tom does is mute the strings with a delay
on, just like in Rage's "The Ghost of Tom Joad."
The next part of the intro, I'm not so sure about.
It sounds like a closed wah strumming this:

e --------------------------
B --------------------------
G --------------------------
D --------------------------
A -7------------------------
E -0------------------------

I'm thinking maybe Tom also makes use of the Digitech
Whammy pedal that he has for the increse in pitch of
the intro. But don't take my word for the intro.

Verse:

e -------------------------------

A -/7---------------/7-----------
E ----10-7-10-7-3-0----10-7-3-0--
