The Persecuted Won’t Forget - Testament
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Mickey McFlarin
Email: [email protected]
Tuning: ½ Step Down
I couldn’t find a tab for Testaments extremely underplayed amazing song so I
made this. It sounds pretty right, I don’t know how Eric plays it live like
if the note is on the right string, but I made it pretty easy so here it
is. On the intro try to play with the side of your pick to make that
harmonic-like sound he gets when playing it. Sorry if it’s confusing and if
some parts are wrong, I know they are, but it’s my first tab.

I’m sorry I can’t finish, I’ve been up for hours trying to tab this out and
I’ve only got the first two minutes done... I’ll have it finished before
the end of the week but I figured a lot of people only wanted the intro and
the verse so I posted this until I finish it. See ya later. I’m tired as
hell.
