Calm Like a bomb
By Rage Against The Machine
From the album Battle of Los Angeles

This is the complete song/correction. I added the Solo, and changed the
riff's to closer match the song and make them easier to play. There is
an occasional very low note that makes me think it could be tuned in
Drop D, but I've tabbed it in Standard Tuning.
The order of the riffs was taken from the version by
