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

NO SHELTER - Rage Against The Machine

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

Song: No Shelter

Artist: Rage Against The Machine

Album: Godzilla Soundtrack, bonus track on Eur/Aus copies of The Battle of Los Angeles

Bassist: Tim Commerford

Tabbed By : Ryan (Number 4) jetfuel888@gmail.com

Tuning: Drop D (DADG)

*Note* The main riff is a bit tricky to play, but basically do the slide on the G-string

the Eb to F while keeping a steady beat between the D string and the dropped D string.

use my middle finger on the G string to pluck the Eb (8th fret) and my index finger to

the D string and my thumb to pluck the dropped D string. It takes a little

but once you figure it out, you pretty much figure out the song.
