The Philosopher tab by Death

T H E  P H I L O S O P H E R


tabbed by PRIMOZ RENKO
Faculty of social sciences in Ljubljana sLOVEnija Europe

I thought to my self it`s about time to satisfy DEATH fans all
around the world (there are so many requests :)).
So here is my tabbed philosopher from fantastic album Individual
thought patterns (whatch out for Symbolic).
Tune down your guitar strings back to D,..... or 1 whole step
I think this would help you to get the right sound, but I have my
special tuning especially for Death songs, it`s about to tune down
betwen 1/2 step and 1 step, consecutive I get the sound for playing
riffs from Human album to Symbolic. Ofcourse if you want to get exactly
Human sound it`s chapter for it iself. I hope you will enjoy as i do
playing The philosopher.

So if you want more DEATH tabs (especially from Human album) just
E-mail me to: primoz.renko@uni-lj.si
