Repeat This rythmn figure until you hit the bridge to the chorus. The Bridge into the chorus has a bunch of power chords which are held. Listen to the tune and you'll get the picture....

Then you play Part 1 three times again and finish the chorus with Part 3. Work with me on this one... I'm not sure about the part 1 section... but this is close.... Now return to ryth. Fig 1 amd play it till you hit the chorus a second time... do the chorus again and then play rythmn Fig 1 again until you hit the little Newstead bass solo, after which you hit a second bridge. I prefer to enter into this section with a jumping, banging pick slide. In other words I bounce the pick off the low E, A and D while sliding the edge down the fretboard... Anyway it sounds real cool...

I just was lazy and didn't want to write it all up... listen to the song and then try to figure it out...The bridge ends with four power chords: B, G, A, B. Then the song heads into rythmn figure 2. Rythmn Fig. 2 is played FAST! Repeat it a bunch of times until you hit the second set of lyrics. Then break into Rythmn Fig 3 followed by Rythmn Fig 3a. After the lyrics then back to Rythmn Fig. 2. This entire thing is repeated twice (I think.... Check out the song). Now we head towards the guitar solo. Rythmn fig 2 is played once and followed by rythmn Figure 1. Ryth. Fig 1 repeats a bunch of times and the intro to the solo starts with an E power chord on 0th fret. Rythmn Fig 1. is played behind the solo until near the end of the solo the Rythmn changes to rythmn figure 4. Rythmn Fig 4. |<-----repeat 3x| |<---------repeat 2x | e|---------------|-------------|--------------------|------------------- B|---------------|-------------|--------------------|------------------- G|----2-4-------*|---2-4-7-6-4-|-6-----------7-9-7-*|------------------- D|--4-2-4-2-2-2-*|-4-2-4-7-6-4-|-6-----------7-9-7-*|------------------- A|--4-0-2-2-2-2--|-4-0-2-5-4-2-|-4-4-4-4-4-4-5-7-5--|------------------- E|--2-----0-0-0--|-2-----------|--------------------|------------------- Now finish the solo off with Rythmn Fig. 3a.... The lead for the solo is basically a blues based Hammet solo in F#. Most of it is played on 14th fret, and Kirk does his standard drop down to F# on the 2nd fret. Well I'm almost done.... Now the song finishes with Rythmn Figure 1 being played a couple of times and then a slowed down, slightly varied version ends the song.... ------------------------- MetallicA

Play with lots of muting and downpicking throughout. Kill those strings! ;) -Legion ------------------------- MetallicA ---------------------------------- Crash Course In Brain Surgury ----------------------------- Transcribed by Travis Fitch An excellent song, so I've tried to include as much information as possible below (the guitar solo is missing, but I am working on that, I won't post it for a while, but if you e-mail me on the above address, I could get it to you within a day or 2 of recieving your message, might just motivate me a tad bit more) The TAB might seem a little difficult to understand at first, but I sugget that you print it out and read through a couple of times, just to get a feel for the song and the way the TAB is written out (sorry if there are any mistakes present, which knowing the way I type, there probably are). You'll have to listen to the song again anyway, to get a feel for the timing, anyway I've had enough for now, so any fixes, mistakes, comments et cetera, don't be afraid to let me know Enjoy GaT.. The song is in 4/4 at around 185 - 190 bpm "Drop D" tuning (low to high: D A D G B E) Bass and drums (4 bars) Gtrs 1 & 2 w/heavy distorsion Intro |---------|--------------------------|-----------------------| |---------|--------------------------|-----------------------| |---------|--------------------------|-----------------------| |---------|--------------------------|-----------------------| |---------|--------------------3--4--|--5--------------------| |---------|--0--1--2--5--6--7--------|-----5--6--7--5--6--7--| |--------------------------|-----------------------|-------------| |--------------------------|-----------------------|-------------| |--------------------------|--------------------2--|-------------| |--------------------------|--------------------2--|-------------| |--------------------3--4--|--5-----------------0--|-------------| |--0--1--2--5--6--7--------|-----5--6--7--5--6-----|-------------| (x4) |---------------||-------------------------------------| |---------------||-------------------------------------| |---------------||*-----------------------------------*| |---------------||*--h--------------------------------*| |---------------||--/2--------2--------2-----------2---| |---------------||---2/-------2--------2-----------2---| |-----------------|-----------------------| |-----------------|-----------------------| |-----------------|-----------------------| |--2--0-----------|-----------------------| |-----------2--0--|------~~~-----0--1-----| |-----------------|--5--2--------0--1-----| (x4) ||--------------------------------------||-----------------| ||--------------------------------------||-----------------| ||*------------------------------------*||-----------------| ||*--h---------------------------------*||--2--0-----------| ||--/2--------2--------2------------2---||-----------2--0--| ||---2/-------2--------2------------2---||-----------------| |-----------------------------------|------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------|------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------|------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------|------------------------------------| |------------~~~--------0-----------|--1---------------------------------| |--------5--2-----------0-----------|--1-----------------------x--x--17--| (x4) ||----------------------------------|| ||----------------------------------|| ||*--------------------------------*|| ||*--h-----------------------------*|| ||--/2--------2--------2--------2---|| ||---2/-------2--------2--------2---|| Start of verses 1 & 2 (see below) |----------||----------------------------------------| |----------||----------------------------------------| |----------||*---------------------------------------| |----------||*--h------------------------------------| |----------||--/2------------2--------2--------2-----| |----------||---2/-----------2--------2--------2-----| |--------------------------------|----------------------------------| |--------------------------------|----------------------------------| |--------------------------------|----------------------------------| |--h-----------------------------|--h-------------------------------| |-/2--------2--------2--------2--|-/2--------2----------2--------2--| |--2/-------2--------2--------2--|--2/-------2----------2--------2--| |--------------------------------|----------------------------------| |--------------------------------|----------------------------------| |--------------------------------|----------------------------------| |--h-----------------------------|--h-------------------------------| |-/2--------2--------2--------2--|-/2--------2--------2--------2----| |--2/-------2--------2--------2--|--2/-------2--------2--------2----| |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |--h-----------------------------|--h-----------------------------| |-/2--------2--------2--------2--|-/2--------2--------2--------2--| |--2/-------2--------2--------2--|--2/-------2--------2--------2--| |--------------------------------|----------------------------------| |--------------------------------|----------------------------------| |--------------------------------|----------------------------------| |--h-----------------------------|--h-------------------------------| |-/2--------2--------2--------2--|-/2--------2--------2----------2--| |--2/-------2--------2--------2--|--2/-------2--------2----------2--| |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |--h-----------------------------|--h-----------------------------
