This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.
Song
MALEVOLENT CREATION
Multiple Stab Wounds
Album: The Ten Commandments
1991 Pavement Music
tabbed by Hellspawn (effigy29@hotmail.com)
Here's the tab from a long awaited Malevolent Creation's song.
However, there's some notes that looks and may be right, but
still leave me uncertain, like in Riff E & Riff F, any comments
or suggests are welcome.
Legend:
h hammer-on
p pull-off
PM |--| palm mute
" tremolo picking (or 32th note)
/ slide up
\ slide down
4/4 time signature
( ) tie note
x muffled note
Timing: 4/4: ---- =1 beat
12/8: ------ =1 beat
So one dash is a 16th note
Tune Down 1 whole step (6:D 5:G 4:C 3:F 2:A 1:D)
4/4
