Tuning: Standard
Gtr I: Kirk Hammett
Gtr II: Gary Holt
Ok guys this is my first tab so maybe you will find some serious or minor mistakes.
While tabbing this thing I've encountered the tuning is kind of strange, as if it was
recorded with a guitar *intended* to be in standard but really not perfectly tuned, or
perhaps it's just the recording quality that messed things up. No solo right now! If someone
could help me tab it I'd greatly appreciate it. Enjoy!
Intro:
Grt I
E|--7----5----7----10------9-7-5-00----------------------|

Play this thing four times. Guitar II goes in the second time, playing the same stuff,
and in the third time the drums kick in.

A|-------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|x4
Gtr II kicks in the second time playing the same thing, just as the intro. In the final
time both start playing:
Gtr I & II
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------|
D|--9-------------9-7-9-5-------------4---4-7------------|
A|--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-7-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-2---2-5------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|x4
* * * * * * * * * * * *
Then it goes to the chorus again.
Chorus:
Gtr I & II
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------|
D|--5-5-5---7-7-7---9-9-9---9-9-9------------------------|
A|--3-3-3---5-5-5---7-7-7---7-7-7------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------|
D|--5-5-5---7-7-7----------------------------------------|
A|--3-3-3---5-5-5---5-5-5---5-5-5------------------------|
E|------------------3-3-3---3-3-3------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------|
D|--5-5-5---7-7-7----------------------------------------|
A|--3-3-3---5-5-5---10-9---10-9---10-9-------------------|
E|------------------8--7---8--7---8--7-------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------|
D|--5-5-5---7-7-7---9-9-9---12-12-12---------------------|
A|--3-3-3---5-5-5---7-7-7---10-10-10---------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
Riff III:
Gtr I & II
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------|
A|--7p5-5p3-3p2-----5---7p5-5p3-3p2-7-9------------------|
E|--------------5-7-----------------5-7------------------|x5
Guitar II starts at the third time.
At the fifth time, Gtr I stops playing Riff III and starts to solo; meanwhile Gtr II
starts playing something like this (If I listen correctly, it seems that the soloer changes
every 2 bars, so 2 bars will be played by Gtr I, then the other 2 by Gtr II, etc):
Gtr II
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------|
D|--9--------------7-------------------------------------|
A|--7-7-7-7-7-7-7--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|x8
* * * * * * * * * * * *
Then the current rythm guitar will start doing the same as the chorus, while the other
one still soloes; just one time. After all of this it goes the same as the intro (Gtr II
starts at second time, it's all the same):
Grt I
E|--7----5----7----10------9-7-5-00----------------------|
B|----0----0----0----------------------8-8-7-5--7-5-00---|
G|-------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|x4
I'm afraid that's all. If you have any corrections/suggestions feel free to contact me.
