                              Chemical Warfare.
                                   Slayer
                      Show No Mercy (bonus track on cd).

Tabbed By: Lee Metcalfe (scm2lm@cm.cf.ac.uk)

Note:   Work in progress... :-)
        BTW I'm useless at identifying pick slides/scrapes...

Notation:       h = Hammer;	p = Pull;	. = Palmute
		\ = Slide down;	/ = Slide up;	b = bend to note
                x = Palmute whilst muffling strings with left hand.
                tr= Trill.

Tempo: Well, it's pretty quick, go listen to the cd!  :8-)

Sorry it isn't finished but I'm really busy these days - I'll try to finish
it soon if I can...  :-/

However, here's the end part for you - this is the riff that they used as the
intro to ghost of war in case you didn't notice...  :-)

                                                              Play 4x
