Originally recorded by Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman on 1986's Reign In Blood. Yes everybody, your eyes have NOT fooled you!!!

If you notice any mistakes, email me at [email protected] and I will fix them! Tuning: Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, eb A augmentedA note: In order to play this solo to any good effect you MUST have a double-locking tremolo.
