Song: My Plague

Guitarists: Mick Thomson and James Root
Album:Iowa

This is a really heavy song, and it is difficult to play. So I recommend playin' it
and then working,
your way up to the slipknot speed. So practice makes perfect. The tuning for this song
A E A D F# B.


Intro: This part is pretty simple but the open power chords have to be played really really fast. This
is a good excercise for your alternate picking.

Guitar 1- Good ol' Jimmy
B |----------------------|
F#|----------------------|
D |----------------------|
A |----------------------|
E |-0-0-0-0-0------------|

[Verse:] Pretty much the same as the intro, but the open power chords are played a little slower.

E |-0-0-0--1h2-2p1-----------|
A |-0-0-0--1h2-2p1-----------|
p.m|-----|


[Chorus:] This is quite easy if you can change chords and you fast going up and down the fret board.

Micky's part.

The verse is then played again with a flanger and a break in between the open chords
the hammer ons.
