Slipknot - Scissors Tabbed By: Sqweeky EMail: Blindside831@aol.com http://www.metalindex.com/tabs/ tuning = Drop D down 1 1/2 steps (B-F#-B-E-G#-C#) Key: x - dont play that string / - slide pm - palm mute Note: there are no 10's and 11's unless stated!!! Intro E |-77777-| B |-xxxxx-| - tremelo pick this with a weak flanger effect. F#|-55555-| Then comes in a second guitar E |-7777777777777777-| B |-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-| - here, increase the flanger effect when the 6's are played F#|-55555555/6666666-| Before the heavy part ("Broke away my tear spout...") B |-7-7-7-7-| F#|---------| The heavy part ("As i lie there whith my tongue spread wide open...") B |-111-0-| F#|-111-0-| B |-111-0-| The Chorus Riff ("Its hard to stay between the lines of skin...") B |-021-021-00-5-05-01-| F#|-021-021-00-5-05-01-| B |-021-021-00-5-05-01-| pm --- --- -- - - This riff comes in before "binding my time..." B |-0000-01-| F#|-0000-01-| - followed by percussion sounds B |-0000-01-| pm ---- -- "Binding my time until the time is right" B |-00-00-11-11-11-| F#|-00-00-11-11-11-| B |-00-00-11-11-11-| The riff when he starts screaming after "Binding my time..." B |-1--0-| F#|-1--0-| - let the chords ring B |-1--0-| Then there is that noisefest part with feedback. Most notes resemble the intro so play around with that. Im sure its a random thing when the band plays it live (if they do...). It kinda reminds me of Kurt Cobain and his feedback-led solos. Towards the end ("I want my time.. Id rather die..." B |-7-| F#|-7-| - this chord is played with flanger B |-7-| "Need Time!" (when Corey goes all psyco!) B |-00-00-| F#|-00-00-| - Just that chord B |-00-00-|
