[Verse 1]
I got up feeling so down
I got off being sold out
I've kept the movie rolling
But the story's getting old now
Oh yeah
I just looked in the mirror
Things aren't looking so good
I'm looking California
And feeling Minnesota

[Pre-Chorus]
So now you know, who gets mystified
So now you know, who gets mystified

[Chorus]
Show me the power child
I'd like to say
That I'm down on my knees today
It gives me the butterflies
Gives me away
Till I'm up on my feet again
Hey, I'm feeling
I'm feeling outshined
Outshined
Outshined
Outshined

Oh yeah

[Verse 2]
Someone let the dogs out
They'll show you where the truth is
The grass is always greener
Where the dogs are shedding
Oh yeah
I'm feeling that I'm sober
Even though I'm drinking
I can't get any lower
Still, I feel I'm sinking

[Pre-Chorus]
So now you know, who gets mystified
So now you know, who gets mystified

[Chorus]
Show me the power child
I'd like to say
That I'm down on my knees today
It gives me the butterflies
Gives me away
Till I'm up on my feet again
Hey, I'm feeling
I'm feeling outshined
Outshined
Outshined
Outshined

[Bridge]
Oh yeah
Outshined
Oh, oh, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
So now you know, who gets mystified

[Chorus]
Show me the power child
I'd like to say
That I'm down on my knees today
Yeah it gives me the butterflies
Gives me away
Till I'm up on my feet again
I'm feeling
I'm feeling
Show me the power child
I'd like to say
That I'm down on my knees today
Yeah it gives me the butterflies
Gives me away
Till I'm up on my feet again

[Outro]
I'm feeling
I'm feeling outshined
Outshined
Outshined
Outshined

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.
