DESIRE
By: Slayer
Off Of The 1998 Album Diabolus In Musica
Transcribed By: Mike Bower
Music By: Jeff Hanneman
Hey everybody. Ok, this is a pretty simple Slayer song, that I don't see very much tab for, so i thought i would tab it out. A note on tuning, some people believe that Slayer tunes down 1/2 step, and then drops the low E string another step, but that is incorrect. for all the songs on Diabolus, they tune all 6 strings down 1 and 1/2 steps, low to high( C#, F#, B, E, G#, C#) However, on Perversions of Pain, and Scrum, they use the traditional half step tuning. Have fun! Drop me a line at guitargod8852@hotmail.com.
