This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

CORNUCOPIA - Black Sabbath

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tabbed by: gcrodl

E-mail: nope

Tuning: C#

This is the way I play it. It's not exactly like the record; it's more like a mix between the original

and Overkill's version. Sounds pretty good to me :)

This is only for reference. Listen to the song to identify the riffs positions, the tempo, etc.

Corrections are more than welcome!

This part is tricky; I can't figure the right notes in the middle of all that noise, so I play

something like this:

C#|------0-----------0-----|------2------5-5-5-|
G#|--------0-----------0---|----3---3----6-6-6-|
