Chris Cornell - 'Worried Moon'
From the album 'Higher Truth'

Great song with alternating fingerpicked and strummed sections. Chris picks the low strings with
his thumb and uses his fingers for the G, B and e strings and occasionally the D string during A chords.

"that never washes out"

"Nervous moon, In the clouds
There's a halo around your proud face
and I'm glad that we're friends
I might see you again

"Yeah if it all goes wrong
and I'm a heart without a home
Maybe you can talk me out
