This entire song was learned by ear, so there may be a few minor mistakes. However, I
believe that this tab is accurate enough to play the song next to perfectly. This song
was written using seven-stringed guitars (that’s a fact as I asked Nergal himself) and
transposed for a six stringed guitar. I hope this tab is enjoyed, and feel free to post any
comments/critiques (don’t be a dick though!).

Verse Pt. 1
The main chords used in the verses and throughout the song are the d♭/c# minor,
and c minor/c minor 11th chords. These chords fit Behemoth's love for the c minor phrygian
key and scale(I am pretty sure that while recording Behemoth layered c minor chords with
c minor 11th chords. I may be wrong, but it doesn't sound exactly like a c minor in
the recording.)
