Songwriter: Chris Cornell

[Verse 1]
Whatsoever I feared
Has come to life
Whatsoever I've fought off
Became my life
Just when every day
Seemed to greet me with a smile
Sunspots have faded
And now, I'm doing time
Now, I'm doing time

[Chorus]
'Cause I fell on black days
I fell on black days

[Verse 2]
Whomsoever I've cured, I've sickened now
Whomsoever I've cradled, I've put you down
I'm a search light soul, they say
But I can't see it in the night
I'm only faking
When I get it right
When I get it right

[Chorus]
'Cause I fell on black days
I fell on black days



[Bridge 1]
How would I know
That this could be my fate?
How would I know
That this could be my fate?

[Verse 3]
What you wanted to see good
Has made you blind
And what you wanted to be yours
Has made it mine
So don't you lock up something
That you wanted to see fly
Hands are for shaking
Not tying
Not tying

[Bridge 2]
I sure don't mind a change
I sure don't mind a change
Sure don't mind, sure don't mind a change
I sure don't mind a change

[Chorus]
'Cause I fell on black days
I fell on black days



[Bridge 1]
How would I know
That this could be my fate?
How would I know
That this could be my fate?
How would I know
That this could be my fate?
How would I know
That this could be my fate?

[Outro]
I sure don't mind a change

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.
