The only tune on this album I haven't seen a tab for.
Comments:
Оnlу the two low strings required for the riffs in this song.
I won't bother specifying palm muting. Just use light palm muting on
the double picked sixteenth notes.
As usual, guitars are tuned to . Hanneman has the left stereo channel.
When I show both guitars playing at once, Hanneman is on the top.
Starting Tempo: 130 bpm

Play Riff 4x with lyrics:
Convicted witch my life will end
At midnight on the stake
My dedicated life was spent
To insubordinate
Secured by lock inside a cell
Imprisoned for no crime
These shackles will be useless
When your life is out of time

Play Riff 4x with lyrics:
Incantation spell gone by
I will see life again
My deals will be made eternally
I signed the book of red
My rage will be unleashed again
Burning the next morn
Death means nothing, there is no end
I will be reborn
Play Riff 2x
Play Riff 4x with lyrics:
No gift of exile in my fate
I'll get no amnesty
You can't control my destiny
There is no habitual need
Proclaim my death, to end my wrath
It takes more than one try
Indulge your ineffective cause
I will never die
Play Riff 2x with lyrics:
You think by killing me tonight
My powers will not rise
There'll be nowhere for you to run
When my hatred comes to life
Condemned to fill the prophecy
Allowing no first born
Defy your morbid declaration
Leave you ripped and torn
Then play: (Hanneman plays some variation on this riff
but I can't figure out exactly what it is)

Play Riff 6x, with lyrics on last 4x:
Count your blessings would be priest
As I burn upon the stake
You'd be forgiven endlessly
But your values are all fake
Forever servant of my lord
By choice and not submission
Maybe now I've made you wonder
I superstition
