[Chorus 1]
Long time coming
Seemed to get me through
Long time coming
Many serve the few
Long to taste the shame
That bows down before you

[Verse 1]
Long time coming
It seemed to get me by
Long time coming
It seemed to satisfy
You longed to taste the shame
That everybody tries

[Chorus 2]
Shame shame
Throw yourself away
Give me little bits of
More than I can take
If it sits upon your tongue
Or naked in your eyes
Give me little bits of
More than I can try

Throw yourself away
Throw yourself away

[Chorus 1]
Long time coming
It seemed to get me through
Long time coming
Many served the few
And long to taste the shame
That bows down before you

Yeah

[Chorus 2]
Shame shame
Throw yourself away
Give me little bits of
More than I can take
If it sits upon your tongue
Or naked in your eye
Give me little bits of
More than I can try

Throw yourself away
Throw yourself away

Throw yourself away
Throw yourself away

Throw yourself away
Throw yourself away
Throw yourself away
Throw yourself away
Throw yourself away

Long time coming
Long time coming

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.
