[Intro]
Heeeeeeeeeeyyyyyy

[Verse 1]
I think it's turning back around
And I think I like it
I think it's turning back around
Though I don't know why it is
I think it's turning back on me
I'm down on the upside
I think it's turning back on me
Now I'm the good ride

[Chorus 1]
And nothing's going to put me out
It's backing down and under
I'm down on the upside now
It's turning back around
Turning back around

[Chorus 2]
I think it's coming on the wind
Just like you said it
I think it's coming on the wind
And I'm going to let it

[Verse 2]
I think it's turning back on me
Everything's easy
I think it's turning back on me
Everything's real to me

[Chorus 1]
And nothing's going to put me out
It's backing down and under
I'm down on the upside now
It's turning back around
Turning back around

[Chorus 2]
I think it's coming on the wind
Just like you said it
I think it's coming on the wind
And I'm going to let it

[Chorus 1]
And nothing's going to put me out
It's backing down and under
I'm down on the upside now
It's turning back around
Turning back around

[Outro]
Turning back around

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.
