Newsgroups: rec.music.makers.bass Subject: BTAB: Metallica - Kill 'em all From: wfpol@cs.ruu.nl (Wilbert Pol) The people who transcribed it : Jeff Jacobson - Anesthesia - Pulling Teeth Andy Aledort - Jump in the Fire Steve Gorenberg - the rest The only thing I've done is converting them to ascii. I've put all note lengths below the measures, they are : w - whole note h - half note q - quarter note e - eigth note s - sixteenth note t - thirty-second note l - long note ('fermate' sign) x+y - play note with length x+y / - a couple of these mean you have to fill the length with 1. eight notes (1 slash) or 2. sixteenth notes (2 slashes) or 3. thirty-second notes (3 slashes) R - in the tab denotes a rest. x - an undefined or muted note. [ 3 ] - a triplet / - slide up /(X) - slide up to fret X, but don't pick X \ - slide down \(X) - slide down to fret X, but don't pick X T - tap note Harm - harmonic A.H. - Artificial harmonic inside bar : p - pull off h - hammer on bx - bend string x notes up bx r - bend string x notes up and release string a note without a length indication, means a 'ghost' note (The little notes that occur in sheet music sometimes). cresc. - crescendo (Play louder and louder, 'fade in') ||-- --|| ||-o o-|| - a repeat ||-o o-|| ||-- --|| | X | |-----| - X bar rest |-----| | | |-----| | % | - repeat previous

Thunder and lightning. The gods take revenge Senseless destruction Victims of fury are cowardly now Running for safety Stabbing the harlot to pay for her sins Leaving the virgin Suicide running as if it were free Ripping and tearing Pre-chorus : Oh! Through the mist and the madness We're trying to get the message to you Chorus : Metal militia ! Metal militia ! Metal militia ! 2. Chained and shadowed to be left behind Nine and one thousand Metal militia for your sacrifice Iron-clad soldiers Join or be conquered, the low of the land What will befall you ? The metallization of your inner soul Twisting and turning Pre-chorus Chorus Metal militia ! 3. We are one as we all are the same Fighting for one cause Leather and metal are our uniforms Protecting what we are Joining together to take on the world With our heavy metal Spreading the message to everyone here Come let yourself go Pre-chorus Chorus : Metal militia ! (repeat & fade)
