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 | |-----| - X bar rest |-----| | | |-----| | % | - repeat previous bar |-----| |-----| Have fun, Wilbert Pol ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- WHIPLASH -------- Intro 168 bpm 3 times 3/4 4/4 160 bpm 23 times -------||---------------||-----||-------------------------------------|| -------||-o---R-------o-||---R-||-o---------------------------------o-|| -7-7-7-||-o-7---7-7-7-o-||-7---||-o-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-o-|| -------||---------------||-----||-------------------------------------|| e e e q h e e e q h s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s [ 3 ] [ 3 ] fig.1 |-------------------------||-----------------------------------| |-------------------------||-o---------------------------------| |-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7---------||-o---------------------------------| |-----------------5--4--3-||---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-| s s s s s s s s e. e. e s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s end fig.1 4 times fig.2 |---------------------------|||-----------------------------------| |-------------------------o-|||-o---------------------------------| |-------------------------o-|||-o---------------------------------| |-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-5--4--3---|||---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-| s s s s s s s s e. e. e s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s end fig.2 4 times |---------------------------------|| |-------------------------------o-|| |-------------------------------o-|| |-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-3---|| s s s s s s s s s s s s s s e Verse 1,2,3 ||-- || ||-o play fig.2 4 times || ||-o || ||-- || Chorus fig.3 end fig.3 3 times ||-------------------|-------------------------|| ||-o-----------------|-----------------------o-|| ||-o-3-3-3-3-3-3-2-0-|-----------------------o-|| ||-------------------|-0h2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-0---|| e e s s e q q q s s s s e s s e s s q [ 3 ] |1,2. | |---|| --|| |---|| play fig.1 4 times o-|| |-R-|| o-|| |---|| --|| w |3.

Lyrics : 1. Late at night, all systems go, you've come to see the show We do our best, yuo're the rest, you make it real you know There's a feeling deep inside that drives you fuckin' mad A feeling of a hammerhead, you need it oh so bad Chorus : Adrenaline starts to flow You're thrashing all around Acting like a maniac Whiplash ! 2. Bang your head against the stage like you never did before Make it ring, make it bleed, make it really sore In a frenzied madness with your leather and your spikes Heads are bobbing around, it's hot as hell tonight Chorus 3. Here on stage the Marshall noise is piercing thruogh your ears It kicks your ass, kicks your face, exploding feeling nears Now's the time to let it rip, to let it fuckin' loose We're gathered here to maim and kill 'cause this is waht we choose Chorus 4. Show it through, the metal's gone, it's time to hit the road Another town, another gig, again we will explode Hotel rooms and motorways, life out here is raw But we'll never stop, we'll never quit 'cause we're Metallica Chorus
