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

TOWNSHIP REBELLION - Rage Against The Machine
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Fedora Bora

Notes: This is my first tab so go easy on me ;)
Tuning: Drop D
Intro
e|----------------------------| *Note: The N means to plunk above the nut of B|--3--3--3-3-3---------------| the 3rd string. With distortion, the sound G|--2--2--2-2-2----N-N-N-N----| sounds better. If your guitar doesn't make D|--0--0--0-0-0---------------| that sound (some don't), then find a pitch A|--0--0--0-0-0---------------| shifting pedal and make it go up 2 octives D|--0--0--0-0-0---------------| and pluck the 7th fret on the 3rd string.
Verse
e|---| *Note: Pluck this every 4th beat for about B|---| 16 times, then comes the chorus.
G|-N-|
D|---| A|---| D|---|
Chorus
e|------------------------|------------------------| *Note: Play all these B|------------------------|------------------------| riffs in order 2 G|------------------------|------------------------| times. D|------------------------|------------------------| A|--3h5-----3h5------3-5--|--3h5-----3h5------5-2--| D|------0-0-----0-0--3-5--|------0-0-----0-0----2--| e|------------------------|---------------------------| B|------------------------|---------------------------| G|------------------------|---------------------------| D|------------------------|----------------5/7-5-3----| A|--3h5-----3h5------3-5--|--3h5-----3h5-----------5--| D|------0-0-----0-0--3-5--|------0-0-----0------------|
Pre 2nd Verse
e|---------------| B|--3--3--3-3-3--| G|--2--2--2-2-2--| D|--0--0--0-0-0--| A|--0--0--0-0-0--| D|--0--0--0-0-0--|
2nd Verse
e|-----|---------| *Note: This part is very tricky and even harder if B|-----|---------| you havn't played it a lot. Play first riff here 8 G|--N--|------N--| times, just like in Verse 1, but this time on the 9th D|-----|--9------| time around, play riff 2 and continue to do that 8 A|-----|--10-----| more times, so just like Verse 1 the riffs are played D|-----|---------| 16 times.
2nd Chorus
e|------------------------|------------------------| *Note: Play all these B|------------------------|------------------------| riffs in order 2 G|------------------------|------------------------| times. D|------------------------|------------------------| A|--3h5-----3h5------3-5--|--3h5-----3h5------5-2--| D|------0-0-----0-0--3-5--|------0-0-----0-0----2--| e|------------------------|---------------------------| B|------------------------|---------------------------| G|------------------------|---------------------------| D|------------------------|----------------5/7-5-3----| A|--3h5-----3h5------3-5--|--3h5-----3h5-----------5--| D|------0-0-----0-0--3-5--|------0-0-----0------------|
Pre Solo
e|--------------------------------------| *Note: This is different from all B|--3--3--3-3-3-------------------------| of the other times because now you G|--2--2--2-2-2----xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-0-0-| have to tremolo pluck the 3rd and D|--0--0--0-0-0----xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-----| 4th stings about 16 times like A|--0--0--0-0-0-------------------------| crazy! D|--0--0--0-0-0H10----------------------|
