The Art Of Shredding
INTRO -- Bass and Drums (bass is just low E chuggin')
P.M. P.M. REPEAT both bars once

I don't have a trem, but I
know the second time the
|P.M.| note is a 2-octave A
e|---------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------| Darrell plays with artificial
D|---------4-2---------------------| harmonics on a few notes,
A|-------------5--4--2---2--4------| listen up and you can
E|-0--2----------------5------5----| figure it out.

A|-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2--------2-----2--------| part)
E|-----------------------------------------------------|
right after that riff hit a bunch of C#'s then a huge D --
here we go! !
This is the MASSIVE RIFF for the chorus (right before
P.M. the verse starts)

A|-------8---4------7---3------6-7/6-5---| --8-9-9---98--|
E|--0-0--6-------0--5-------0--4-5-------| --6-7-7---76--|
that chord in between the end of the chorus riff and the verse is a hard F#
the verse riff is just a palm muted progression of notes-
it goes from E to G# to E to A#
P.M.---------- 1st time only

this riff's kinda tricky -- it's hard to keep the D# staccato

B|------------------------------|
G|------------------------------| this part's very strange
D|------------------------------| to look at, just listen
A|-6-6-----6/7\6--66-----4------| to get the feel right
E|-4-4--0--4/5\4--44--0--2-0--0-| (also, I think that slide
from G# to A may
actually be a bend)
then do a chromatic descent from A# into the blitzkrieg!
ok, solo's next-- you guys are on your own for that baby!!
There's a lot of cool bends and a TON of stretching involved
I suppose the last thing is the chorus and that descending Eb thing--
there's a harmony that's something like this on the last time--
RIGHT!
