Subject: BTAB: Metallica - Kill 'em all
From: wfpol@cs.ruu.nl (Wilbert Pol)
The people who transcribed it :
Jeff Jacobson - Anesthesia - Pulling Teeth
Andy Aledort - Jump in the Fire
Steve Gorenberg - the rest
The only thing I've done is converting them to ascii.
I've put all note lengths below the measures, they are :
w - whole note
h - half note
q - quarter note
e - eigth note
s - sixteenth note
t - thirty-second note
l - long note ('fermate' sign)
x+y - play note with length x+y
/ - a couple of these mean you have to fill the length with
1. eight notes (1 slash) or
2. sixteenth notes (2 slashes) or
3. thirty-second notes (3 slashes)
R - in the tab denotes a rest.
x - an undefined or muted note.
[ 3 ] - a triplet
/ - slide up
/(X) - slide up to fret X, but don't pick X
- slide down
(X) - slide down to fret X, but don't pick X
T - tap note
Harm - harmonic
A.H. - Artificial harmonic
inside bar :
p - pull off
h - hammer on
bx - bend string x notes up
bx r - bend string x notes up and release string
a note without a length indication, means a 'ghost' note (The little notes
that occur in sheet music sometimes).
cresc. - crescendo (Play louder and louder, 'fade in')
||-- --||
||-o o-|| - a repeat

| X |

Lyrics :
1. Sound is ripping through your ears
The deaf'ning sound of metal nears
Your body's waiting for his whips
The taste of leather on your lips
Chorus :
Hear the cry of war
Louder than before
With his sword in hand
To control the land
Crushing metal strikes
On this fright'ning night
Fall on to your knees
For the Phantom Lord
2. Victim falling under chains
You hear them crying dying pains
Fists of terror breaking through
Now there's noting you can do
Chorus
3. The leathered armies have prevailed
The Phantom Lord has never failed
Smoke it lifting from the ground
The rising volume metal sound
Chorus
Fall to your knees
And bow to the Phantom Lord
