Released: October 31, 1988

Songwriter: Chris Cornell

Producer: Drew Canulette Soundgarden

[Intro]
Far beyond the road
Between your house and home
There is a churning storm
Of hailing burning bones

[Verse 1]
Tiny baby cries
Little, tiny pawn
In the profit gain
Tiny baby grows

[Verse 2]
Mother, who’s your man
Is he doing what he can
To make a proper home, home
By overturning other stones, stones

[Verse 3]
Father, mighty man
Loves his little boys, boys
Shows them how to kill
To save his precious stones, stones

[Chorus 1]
Far beyond the wheel
Spin your life around
By driving flesh and blood
Deep into the ground, ground

[Chorus 2]
Far beyond the wheel
It steers your life around
By driving flesh and blood, blood
Deep into the ground, the ground

Soundgarden

One of the biggest rock bands out of Seattle, Soundgarden was formed in 1984 by singer and rhythm guitarist Chris Cornell, lead guitarist Kim Thayil, and bassist Hiro Yamamoto. Matt Cameron became the band’s full-time drummer in 1986, while bassist Ben Shepherd became a permanent replacement for Yamamoto in 1990. While one of the creators of the Grunge alternative rock and the first to sign to a major label, they only rose to stardom once the genre was popularized by Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains in the early 90s. After achieving great success with 1994’s Superunknown, the band decided to call it quits three years later due to internal squabbles. Eventually they reunited in 2010, releasing new album King Animal two years later. Frontman Chris Cornell committed suicide in a Detroit hotel room on May 17, 2017. He was 52 years old.
