Biografía:
Candlebox es una banda de post-grunge originaria de Seattle, Estados Unidos, formada en 1991 con el nombre de Uncle Duke. Más tarde el nombre cambió como un homenaje a una canción de Midnight Oil.
Desde un comienzo la banda fue seguida por muchos fans del grunge y por ello su estilo fue considerado como una versión derivativa de éste. Ésta fue una de las razones de su gran éxito comercial. En los 90 recorrió el circuito de Seattle pero sus miembros no consideraban que Candlebox fuese netamente una banda de grunge

This is an absolutely awesome song. It looks really simple on paper,
but it sounds so GREAT! The whole thing is in drop-D, and there's
only a few chords that are reversed in different sections. The form
of the song is really interesting: it's A-B-A, but the A section is
a verse-chorus, and the B section has a series of new verses with
a big solo that crashes back into the A section in one of my favorite
crescendoes ever. Then the A section does one more verse and chorus
and then fades out with the chorus.
VERSE
The intro/verse uses just C and the "moveable C" that you use in "Man
on the Moon" by REM. For the last unit, you just change to a Cadd9.
Or you can call it a Csus2, or a Cadd2, or whatever, no none cares.
If anyone cares, that's probably because you're doing music theory
homework, in which case you'd call it a ninth chord.

For the chorus ("Written down..."), it's this: and end with this:

Then one guitar transitions with this figure (clean):
G-------0-------0-------
D-----------------------
A----3------2-----------
D-------------------3---
While the rhythm guitar (heavy) plays this to pick
it back up for the new section:
A----3----3--3--5-------
D----3----3--3--5-------
And then you go on to the B section, which starts with an awesome riff.
e-------------------------------------------------------
B----3----3--3------------------------------3----3--3---
G----2----2--2------------------------------2----2--2--- etc.
D----0----0--0------------------------------0----0--0---

You can also play it this way:

D----7----7--7----------------------------
A----5----5--5----3-h5--5--3--3--5--------
D-----------------3-h5--5--3--3--5--X--X--
I don't think the cops will catch you no matter which one you use.
I just like the brighter sound of the first one better myself.
For the "Keep on time" section (B section verse), play this with palm
muting on the A string and a nice open growl on the fifths:
e---------------------------------------------------------------
B---------------------------------------------------------------
G---------------------------------------------------------------
D---------------------------------------------------------------
A----3--5--5--3--5--3-----3----3--3--5--------------------------
D----------------------X--3----3--3--5--------------------------
I'm sorry that I can't give you the solo, but I can tell you that it
goes over the main B section riff. After the solo spirals upward and
everybody swings into that big, kick-ass crescendo, the rhythm guitar
plays these chords:
e-------------------------------------------------------
B-------------------------------------------------------
G----7------5-------------------------------------------
D----7------5------3------5-----------------------------
A----5------3------3------5-----------------------------
D------------------3------5-----------------------------
After that, it's back to the A section (verse-chorus) for a fade.
In real life, you have to find a way to end it, and I haven't quite.
Let me know if you get any good ideas!
Have fun with this song, it's one of my favorites.
