Circle of Power
	(words by Hiro Yamamoto, music by Kim Thayil)

This is a correction of the one I previously did.  I cannot believe I screwed
up so much on the transcriptions.  Anyway here it is. The main riff (played
very quickly) of this song is:

E ------------------
B ------------------
G ------------------
D -------------7-7--
A -7--7-7-5-5-------
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:

	B5, D5, C#5, C5

After that, the main guitar plays:

E -----------------------------------------------------------------
B -----------------------------------------------------------------
G -----------------------------------------------------------------
D -----------------------------------------------------------------
A -----------------------------------------------------------------
E -2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-

That is basically the song.  I won~t transcribe the solo because I do not 
know it.  That slow riff after the solo is just the main riff played slow.
One more thing, not about this transcription, but about another one I did.
THE SONG "SWALLOW MY PRIDE" WAS NOT WRITTEN BY SOUNDGARDEN BUT WAS A COVER
SONG BY GREEN RIVER.  I apologize to all the angered Green River fans. 
Goodbye for now...
