"Motorbreath"


Motorbreath

written by Hetfield

as performed on Kill 'Em All







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')
