Tabbed by Greg

Hey, I did a ton of wav.files on my comp of the songs ive tabbed so far! I tried
putting em on my own website but i couldnt figure out how. So email me if you want
a part of a song, and make sure you lmk which parts of which songs!!!THX

  Hey, I'm still on my tabbing every mudvayne song quest and im on Severed. For some
reason there is only one tab on here that has the correct tuning, so props to you
ISKATESTONED. And a lot of the Severed tabs on here didnt quite have....it. But
theyre decent. Well i think that mine has it. (in my opinion, and i dont mean to
sound cocky...and of course everyone says theyre tab's the best.) I guess you'll have
to try n see.

Any questions, comments, or requests, please email me @ pelvic_thrust2001@hotmail.com
Or add me to msn if ya need me to play something or any in-depth questions.

Tuning:
E
B       s=slap   p=pluck    ^=bend   v=release
