0* you can do it like this but I prefer to fret the fifth fret of the
bottom string with my pinkie finger.

Riff 1
Verse
Chorus

Now GTR1 plays a solo over the verse riff as a melody
GTR2 plays the verse riff four times.

I dont have solo right now for three reasons:
1:two of my strings are broke
2:I dont think im good enough to figure out the solo correctly
and 3: I dont want to just steal it off another tab.(which probably stole
it anyway)

It would be great if another Slayer fan would donate the solo(s) to my tab.
If you need help figuring it out, I can tell you that its probably based on
the E Phrygian scale (or mode, w/e)

Then you do the Chorus while the other guitar does solo licks over it.

Now for the kik-ass inturlude!

Riff 2 (both guitars do their parts)
Riff 3, 4 times


Now Kerry Kings solo. I like this one better than the first one but I think
Jeff Hanneman is the backbone of Slayer. It doesnt sound TOO hard.
maybe I'll figure it out later and put it on the tab.

This the melody:

Riff 2                    965
hold E5 at end and then,  743

This was my first tab. I hope you enjoy it cuz Im exhausted.
Feel free to correct it and comment on it. Even if you tell me that a monkey
could have done it better, I'll still be happy to hear your opinion!
