Metallica: Reload - Track 1: Fuel

Fuel... looking at the Tab, listening or watching the song might seem
hard... but really it isn't. I learned this on acoustic (including the
solo) by reading the official Reload book, however this is my version.

Like my other Tabs, I've written it so people who play with others can
play different parts of the song with another person. When two guitars
are playing at the same time, but playing different riffs I've written
it so that both guitars are shown and put by each other.

If you've got an electric guitar, then great. All you need is a
distortion pedal and a Wah effects pedal (for lead that is). The solo
at the end shouldn't be hard for anyone with acoustic, even though it
gets kind of high. I recommend playing the notes written as a bend

This song is originally played in Standard Eb tuning, but I am translating it to Drop D
