Rock Is Dead tab by Marilyn Manson

Guitar Tab

Song: Rock Is Dead
Artist: Marilyn Manson

       The Matrix OST

Originally tabbed out by Dustin Ragsdale, corrections by Kristof Smits.

I left the most pieces how they were, but added some small corrections.

Key: X = mute
     m = mute the string on the chord
     r = let ring
     ~ = use tremolo arm
     / = slide up
