  • I got quite a few comments suggesting I Am the Highway by Audioslave so I learned it a few days ago. It's really not an easy song to sing. I certainly don't have Chris Cornell's vocal range so I've tuned the guitar down an entire step so I can actually sing it. I hope you enjoy my take. ''I was lost in the cities, alone in the hills'' Man, I can relate to that. Thanks for watching!

    Dude, AMAZING cover of my most favorite Audioslave song. I like your flair to it, you should try to add the second C/G to Am progression though, you play the first C/G > Am but then go G >Am when you sing "heels". That particular C/G>Am phrasing is why it's my absolute favorite Audioslave song, it add so much depth and character to get that bump and spirit.
