"Buried in the Backyard" by Cannibal Corpse Off of the album "Eaten Back To Life" Tabbed by Chris Rezendes This song is so fucking weird! I originally decided to tab it for two reasons- I haven’t seen a tab for it anywhere else, and, it sounded like it would be easy. NO! The whole song is practically made up of riffs, and you know how hard it is to figure out Cannibal Corpse riffs. To make matters worse, the production is on the mushy side, so you can’t always hear what is being played perfectly. Man, I thought this would be easy! For those reasons, some parts of the tab are bound to be wrong, in which case any corrections would be greatly appreciated. Comments are welcome and encouraged, and both can be sent to dadmcbad@hotmail.com. Tuning should be Eb (half a step down from standard).
