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

OBITUARY-greatest band anywhere

ROTTING WAYS-slow, but so cool

from THE END COMPLETE

transcribed by JON SANFORD (JON @CSUOHIO.EDU)

This is my first attempt. I have about 12 or 13 more by OBITUARY.

This is my own idea of how the song sounds. If you dont like it,

feel free to correct it. If you don't like death metal, you need

to form a mind of you're own and like something that MTV can't handle.
