Song
"Grinder" as recorded by Six Feet Under
Original version by Judas Priest
tabbed by Aaron Richards
I can never decide if Allen West use drop D tuning or tune all
strings down 1 step. For this song at least, I believe it's
just regular D tuning, not drop. i did the solo as well.
play that 4x riff A ( x2)

the last chorus is a little different from the others.
play riff B 3 times "Grinder, bitch!..."
then the 4th time goes
" Grinder, motherfucker!" "Grin-der!"

hope that wasn't hard to understand. The riff structure was kind
of fucked up, or "fickt auf" as we say in Germany. there were
little variations on each riff that I had to keep putting in.
h- hammer on
p- pull off
.-palm mute
a.h.- artificial harmonic
b- bend note up 1 full step
r- release bend
tr- trill
>- depress whammy bar slightly
~- vibrato
/- slide
