Chords with lyrics
Here it is Testament "Demonic Refusal" from "Demonic (11107-2)" track 1 and "Signs of Chaos: The Best of Testament (11120-2)" track 6 Music by Eric Peterson Words by Chuck Billy Published by Burnt Offerings/Fierce/Mayhem Tabbed by Kevin Burnes Typed up by Adam de Angeli email:[email protected] Tuning: DADGBE Wherever you see a double line the riff might split up somewhere (depending on where in the song you are). Not all repeats are shown, but this tab should make it pretty damn easy to learn the song. For palm mutes, start at the note above for the next note above the "P" and stop and either the "|" if given or the "M". The counting is shown above the staff for convienience. The the count is "* & a" there are some triplets in there. Any questions or comments email me. Effects are just distortion, as far as I can tell. Copyrights of song: Testament Copyrights of transcription: Kevin's during intro, lead guitar plays artificial harmonics onG+G string at 3rd and 5th frets with whammy bar every other measure. listen to the song to figure it out.
