Tabs
two versions
** Mandatory Suicide
** by Slayer
** Off the album "South of Heaven"
** Transcribed (sort of!) by Kevin Phillips, New Zealand
Being new to the 'Net, I was pleasantly surprised to find a source of TAB
available on Ftp!! I just couldn't resist the temptation to contribute to the
TAB files collection! Keep up the good work out there, Axe-dudes & dudettes!
P.S. I transcribed this Fav' Slayer piece a LONG time ago.. When I was
still learning the G'tar so apologise for the shitty format and any mistakes,
boo-boos, etc..

Hope thats enough for you Slatanic Axe-people out there!
Its not that hard to play, so I bet you'll be able to fix all the mistakes up
pretty easy!
(Coming soon.. Some Flotsam & Jetsam, Obituary(Lots!), Death, Heathen, etc!)
(Once I can FIND and dig out my old transcription books!)

All the rhythm parts are here. For the 1st solo go figure it
