Band: Lamb of God
Album: New American Gospel

Copyright (c) Prosthetics/Metal Blade 2000

Tab by: DeathByMetal (floaterjoey1987@hotmail.com)

Key:
. - palm mute     h - hammer on
x - Stuccato      ~ - vibrato
p - pull off

Tuning: Drop D - D A D G B D (The high D doesn't matter for this song,
but I believe "Lamb of God" uses it)

I realize that i already have a "Black Label" tab posted, but i messed up
a tiny part. I just forgot to make a power chord a power chord
(forgot to add a 0 on the a string). not a big deal but its pissing me off.
