A PLACE IN THE DIRT
ALBUMS - Holy Wood (In The Shadow Of The Valley Of Death)

KEY
~ - hold note
+ - play notes together as a chord
` - play note an octave higher then the rest

~There are some 'extra' riffs added in this tab that aren't necessary to playing the actual song.  Like the slide guitar riffs that are crucial to the song are actually a slide guitar (as denoted by the liner notes) and NOT the keyboard.  It'll be quite obvious which are the actual keyboard riffs.~

SLIDE GUITAR RIFFS (Use DISTORTED GUITAR on the highest octave possible)
