================================================================================================= Song: Once Upon the Cross Artist: Deicide Album: Once Upon the Cross (1995) Tabbed by Chris Rezendes ([email protected]) Tuning: Half step down Notation Key v: vibrato t: tremolo bar ^: bend .: palm mute ~: trill p: pull-off h: hammer-on x: ghost note /: slide up \: slide down Comments: Probably the most badass song on the whole album, and that covers a lot of ground. I don't know many tabs I made from this album, but it seems like I must have tabbed like half of it by now. Anyway, this tab came out awesome IMHO, and if you spot a mistake, it would be greatly appreciated by all those here at Rezendes Tablature Corporation if you pointed it out to us. All comment can be sent to the assistant directional shift supervisor managerial vice president, Mr. Chris Rezendes at the aforementioned e-mail address. Later, Cadaver Canines and Canine Cadavers. Or something. ================================================================================================= Fig. 1 x1 e|-------------| B|-------------| G|-------------| D|--4-3-3-2-2--| A|--2-1-1-2-2--| E|--2-1-1-0-0--| . . . . .
