Fade to Black by Metallica
off the best record ever....Ride the Lightning


uh....hi, when i seen this tab on here there were a few parts that i thought needed
changed, um its mostly in the chorus and in the intro but this is the way i learned
them and they sound right to me, so if this is wrong...send me some death threats or
something i dont give a fuck....if you have any question or corrections or just wanna
thank me for correcting it send mail to drewatkinson@hotmail.com thank you and enjoy :)


All tab markings are at the top of the tab. Markings used:
P  - pull off.
H  - hammer on.
T  - tap - fret at note shown, tap at note in brackets.
.---. - sustained note.

Tabbed by: Kane Bochatyn (JenoUnion)

This is my fairly accurate rendition of Fade to Black by Metallica on bass. It is based
of the original master track played
by Cliff Burton on the Ride the Lightning album. The link to listen to the bass alone is here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yQP08QsKVw.
While the other tabs on this site are good, they aren't perfect,
and I'm trying correct a couple of things.
You might need to listen to the recording for some parts to get the right timing, but
almost 100%.
