Slaughterday

Song

-AUTOPSY - SLAUGHTERDAY from the "Mental Funeral" CD (c) 1991 Vile Music

-Transcribed by Chris Myhre. Version 1.1 Feb 2000 (ver 1.0 Dec 99)

-For questions, corrections, etc email me: bowel_ripper@hotmail.com

-For best print edit the left/right margins in page setup to make the tab fit the sheet

-Tuning: C (1:C, 2:G, 3:D#, 4:A#, 5:F, 6:C)

-Notation legend: h = hammer-on; p = pull-off; . = palm mute; ^ = semitone

trill; / = slide up; \ = slide down; ~ = vibrato; " = tremolopick; * = see note

-Note that the tuning on this song can be a bit confusing. Especially in riff B

and the succeeding riff where it sounds like the 6th string is slightly above C.

The tuning is C anyway, but if you try to play it together with the song on the

album it might sound a bit out of tune some places...
