"The God That Failed" by Metallica -=The Black Album=- Tabbed by Cherry Lane Music Company Transcribed by Robert Mills Outlawtorn@peoplepc.com Legal Note: I dont care whos site this is on as long as its being seen and i get credit. This is my second tab and i really didn't wanna do it, but alotta people suck at tabbing and it pisses me off when some one butchers a metallica song, especially a good one such as this. For the most part this is perfect because i had the book but i lost it. So this is from memory. Tuning: Down a half step. Listen for sonf for timeing -=Intro: (Alright, here James plays this first riff then Kirk the second.
