Jump in the Fire

Metallica
Bass Tab
4.9(10)

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

q - quarter note

e - eigth note

s - sixteenth note

t - thirty-second note

l - long note ('fermate' sign)

x+y - play note with length x+y

/ - a couple of these mean you have to fill the length with

1. eight notes (1 slash) or

2. sixteenth notes (2 slashes) or

3. thirty-second notes (3 slashes)

R - in the tab denotes a rest.

x - an undefined or muted note.

[ 3 ] - a triplet

/ - slide up

/(X) - slide up to fret X, but don't pick X

\ - slide down

\(X) - slide down to fret X, but don't pick X

T - tap note

A.H. - Artificial harmonic

inside bar :

p - pull off

h - hammer on

bx - bend string x notes up

Lyrics :

1. Down in the depths of my firey home, the summons bell will chime

Tempting you and all the earth to join our sinful kind

There's a job to be done and I'm the one, you people make me do it

Now it's time for your fate and I won't hesitate to you down into

this pit.

Chorus

So come on !

Jump in the fire !

So come on !

Jump in the fire

2. With Hell in my eyes and with death in my veins the end is closing in

Feeding on the minds of men and from their souls within

My disciples all shout to search you out and they always shall obey

Follow me now, my child, not the meck or the mild, but do just as I say

Chorus

3. Jump by your will or be taken by force, I'll get you either way

Trying to keep the hellfire lit, I'm stalking you as prey

Living your life as me, I am as you see. There's part of me in everyone

So, reach down, grab my hand, walk with me through the land, come home

where you belong

Chorus

So come on !

Jump in the fire !

So come on !

Jump in the fire !

So come on !

Jump in the fire !

So come on !

Jump in the fire !

Come on, jump, baby, now !
