this part is hard to hear so it might be a little off but it 
works.
bridge:

the first and second times this is played it is just                                         
  single notes played fast

whew!! I think it took me longer to tab this than it did to 
learn it.... well all you Carcass fans, if you need more stuff 
likethis you should pay a visit to   and you can mail me for an uncertain period of time at 
 if you have any special requests etc.  
I also know a lot of cannibal corpse from the bleeding and tomb
of the mutilated if there be need of such tablature.  later, 
death heads.
