Words and music written by Peter Steele.
Correction by Graham Lapper (gdl_42@yahoo.co.uk)
Okay, this is a correction to the previous listing cos I reckon the verse riff was wrong.
The majority of this tab was done by Liam Lince (See end for details). The only part that
is mine is the updated verse riff. I tried the e-mail address but it's no good.....
It previously looked like this:
verse riff-
g|--------------------------------------------
d|--------------------------------------------
a|--------------------------------------------
e|---44444-666-00000-444-----------------
But I reckon this is wrong cos the note progression is of a different pattern to Riff 1,
yet on listening to the CD, they sound the same.
Also, not sure about the intro. Can somebody check this and let me know.
Anyway, judge for yourself. Any problems/queries, e-mail me at gdl_42@yahoo.co.uk
Cheers,
Graham L.

Okay this is a killer song from, in my opinion, Type O's best release to date. It's not too
hard to play ..... but the timing has got to be perfect, so listen closely to the album or you'll end up
making a mess of a great song.
Standard Tuning (GDAE)
intro-
g|--------------------------------------------
d|--------------------------------------------
a|------------------7/------------------------
e|--/2-------7h9-------5-----7/9\7-----------
this part comes in under the keyboard intro
Riff 1-
g|--------------------------------------------
d|--------------------------------------------
a|--------------------------------------------
e|---/99999\444/1212121212\444----------
this is the kickass riff that comes in just after the intro and before the verse. by the way ... those are
12 as in twelves not 1 2 1 2

As riff 1 but palm muted and play without the slides.
Or another possibility is that it's played on a 5-string... How does that sound?

Okay those are all the riffs in the song. Listen to the song to figure out exactly when to play then and get
the beat down.
