I hate writing tabs, but finding every tab version of this song to be dead wrong I was
to listen section by section and piece this together.
It is NOT complete yet as I only started figuring it out two days ago.
I will however complete the song in time.
Additionally, I can't even play it up to speed myself so I suggest starting slow and
comfortable with the patterns. Cannibal corpse is no joke!
Please, if you have any corrections or additional sections feel free to message me at
:)
Tuning: C standard
i.e. tune the low E down to C and tune the others accordingly as though it were standard.
Please enjoy!

(intro verse riff: section 1) try to individually finger notes. Don't hold your fingers
a chord, it kills the staccato feel.
Your hand should only move to 2 positions,with index resting on fifth and moving up to eighth.
Definitely start slow with this one.

Play Intro verse riff section 1a, twice more. Then back into the Bridge.
On the last 6 beats of the bridge bridge play a muted power chord on third fret.
Then this: You don't need to start at the third fret, but it gives the slides more range
my opinion.

OK, that's enough for today, I know I'm missing anything and everything that follows
riff and am probably wrong or whatever. I'll make alterations once I make progress with the
Hope this helps some folks :)
