Jump In The Fire bass tab by Metallica

Bass tabs

Newsgroups: rec.music.makers.bass


The people who transcribed it :

Jeff Jacobson - Anesthesia - Pulling Teeth
Andy Aledort - Jump in the Fire
Steve Gorenberg - the rest

The only thing I've done is converting them to ascii.

I've put all note lengths below the measures, they are :
w - whole note
h - half note
q - quarter note
e - eigth note
s - sixteenth note
t - thirty-second note
l - long note ('fermate' sign)
x+y - play note with length x+y

/ - a couple of these mean you have to fill the length with
  1. eight notes     (1 slash)  or
  2. sixteenth notes   (2 slashes) or
  3. thirty-second notes (3 slashes)

R - in the tab denotes a rest.
x - an undefined or muted note.
[ 3 ] - a triplet

/ - slide up
/(X) - slide up to fret X, but don't pick X
\ - slide down
\(X) - slide down to fret X, but don't pick X
T - tap note
Harm - harmonic
A.H. - Artificial harmonic

inside bar :
p - pull off
h - hammer on
bx - bend string x notes up
bx r - bend string x notes up and release string

a note without a length indication, means a 'ghost' note (The little notes
that occur in sheet music sometimes).

cresc. - crescendo (Play louder and louder, 'fade in')

||-- --||
||-o o-|| - a repeat
||-o o-||

| X |

| % | - repeat previous bar

Lyrics :
 1. Down in the depths of my firey home, the summons bell will chime
  Tempting you and all the earth to join our sinful kind
  There's a job to be done and I'm the one, you people make me do it
  Now it's time for your fate and I won't hesitate to you down into
   this pit.

 Chorus :
  So come on !
  Jump in the fire !
  So come on !
  Jump in the fire

 2. With Hell in my eyes and with death in my veins the end is closing in
  Feeding on the minds of men and from their souls within
  My disciples all shout to search you out and they always shall obey
  Follow me now, my child, not the meck or the mild, but do just as I say

 Chorus

 3. Jump by your will or be taken by force, I'll get you either way
  Trying to keep the hellfire lit, I'm stalking you as prey
  Living your life as me, I am as you see. There's part of me in everyone
  So, reach down, grab my hand, walk with me through the land, come home
   where you belong

 Chorus :
  So come on !
  Jump in the fire !
  So come on !
  Jump in the fire !
  So come on !
  Jump in the fire !
  So come on !
  Jump in the fire !
  Come on, jump, baby, now !
