Chords
This is the tab/chords for the actual Chris Cornell solo version of this song, not Audioslave's studio
Chris often plays the Bm and Bsus2 chords with an F# in the bass. He also varies how he plays the Em7 chord,
from simply lifting off of the 6 string when moving from G to Em7, to putting his second finger on the second
fret of the D string. During the Bridge, listen for when Chris lifts off of the 2nd string when playing Bm
to turn it into Bsus2. During the first part of the Outro he picks the strings individually on the Bm a bit.

Bm D G Em7 (x2)
[Verse 1]
Bm D G Em7 Someone falls to pieces sleeping all alone, someone kills the pain Bm D G Em7 Spinning in the silence, she finally drifts away Bm D G Em7 Someone gets excited in a chapel yard, catches a bouquet Bm D G Em7 Em7 Another lays a dozen white roses on a grave
[Chorus]
Bm D G Em7 And To be yourself is all that you can do Heyyy-eeeey Bm D G Em7 To be yourself is all that you can doooooooooooooooooooooo
Bm D G Em7 (x2)
[Verse 2]
Bm D G Em7 Someone finds salvation in everyone, another only pain Bm D G Em7 Someone tries to hide himself down inside himself he prays Bm D G Em7 Someone swears his true love until the end of time, another runs away Bm D G Em7 Em7 Separate or united, healthy or insaaaaaaaane
[Chorus]
Bm D G Em7 And To be yourself is all that you can do Heyyy-eeeey Bm D G Em7 To be yourself is all that you can doooooooooooooooooooooo Bm D G Em7 And To be yourself is all that you can do Heyyy-eeeey Bm D G Em7 To be yourself is all that you can doooooooooooooooooooooo
[Bridge]
G A Even when you've paid enough Bm Bsus2 Been put upon or been held up G A with every single memory of Bm Bsus2 The good or bad, faces of luck G A don't lose any sleep tonight Bm Bsus2 I'm sure everything will end up alright G A A A A You may win or looooooooooooooooooooooooooose
[Outro]
Bm Bm E7 Em7 But to be yourself is all that you can do Bm Bm E7 Em7 Yeah, to be yourself is all that you can do Bm D G Em7 And To be yourself is all that you can do Heyyy-eeeey Bm D G Em7 To be yourself is all that you can doooooooooooooooooooooo Bm D G Em7 To be yourself is all that you can, be yourself is all that you can Bm D G Em7 Be yourself is all that you can doooooooooooooooooooo
