Guitar Tab

Suicidal Tendencies: Heaven (Rhythm Guitar)
Album: Freedumb (1999)

A very good song from the album which also contains 'Cyco Vision'
(you might recognize it from the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater music).
Couldn't find a tab of it anywhere so here's my attempt.


Riff 1

Play this over and over. 0:00 - 1:39, 1:50 - 2:23, and again at 3:50 - 4:13

          ^  +  ^   +  ^                        +  ^  +  ^

Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -

That's the intro for guitar 1, listen for rhythm, appergiate chords slightly.

^ =  play a down stroke

+ = play an up stroke


The main rhythm of the song was tabbed by someone else, but I added the timing in.

I tabbed the rest of what he left out.

Riff 2

This riff is played during 1:40 - 1:50 (2x), 2:24 - 2:44 (4x) and again at 3:30 - 3:50(4x)

Time Placement
Riff 1 0:00 - 1:39

Riff 2 1:40 - 1:50 (2x)

Riff 1 1:50 - 2:23

Riff 2 2:24 - 2:44 (4x)

Riff 3 2:45 - 3:05

Riff 4 3:07 - 3:27

Riff 2 3:30 - 3:50 (4x)

Riff 1 3:50 - 4:13


I lined it up all evenly but it still might show up with extra dashes, just disregard those.

Riff 4 is the only Riff that I'm skeptical about. It sounds like that is what is being played,
but I'm just not 100% sure on it.

I'll try to tab out the lead guitar as soon as possible.
