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

Song

"The Undead Will Feast" by Cannibal Corpse

Off of the album "Eaten Back To Life"

Tabbed by Chris Rezendes

This is definitely one of my faves, and I simply had to know how to play

it. So I created this tablature to help record my progress on

deciphering it and to give everyone else the main idea of the song.

Some parts are bound to be wrong, and corrections and/or comments are

welcome and encouraged. They can be sent to dadmcbad@hotmail.com.

Since I find that on most Cannibal Corpse songs only the bottom four

strings are needed, the top two will be omitted to keep things simple.

Tune to a drop Db (which means to tune to a dropped D and then tune half

a step down).

Also, I normally allow the reader to decide when to palm mute, but in

the situation of riffs 1 and 3, a heavy palm mute is necessary or it

sounds like shit. The heavy palm mute is indicated by a ^ under the

notes that should be muted.
