Song

Skin Ticket by Slipknot

Tabbed by Jason

This is an amazing song. It?s not as fast as most other Slipknot

songs but it captures a pure feeling of complete psychosis?I love it!

A few notes about this song: the tuning is drop A, NOT Slipknot?s

usual drop B. That means tune your low E string down to D, then tune

the entire guitar down 2 ? steps. (Low to high: A E A D F# B)

Also, effects are very important in this song, use a wah pedal and

various effects on Riff 1.

Notation Key:

/ -Slide

<5> - Harmonic

pm - Palm mute

b - Bend ? step

# - Tremolo picking

Riff 1 (use as many effects as possible)

That?s it, a fairly complex song but it shouldn?t be too hard to
