SACRIFICE UNTO SEBEK NILE ANNIHILATION OF THE WICKED I’d like to thank the people on niletabs.netfirms who submitted their tabs first, the people on riversofgore.com who also submitted their tabs, and to the Sebek Lesson Video by Karl Sanders, this is really just a combination of all three mediums, and full credit to all those who put their tabs in. I couldnt’ve tabbed this song if my life depended on it, or any other Nile one for that matter, but I figured I might as well try and put in a complete and hopefully fully correct tab on.

Repeat Verse Riff A, 4 times for Karl and 3 times for Dallas. Then the solo is played which I can’t tab, I’m terrible at sweeping, for now.) The backing for that, played by Dallas is Verse riff B four times, then on that huge bend Karl does to finish, Dallas does a variation on verse riff B four times, as shown below (purely guesswork, it sounded ok to me) B---------------------------------|---------| F#--------------------------------|---------| D---------9-8---------------------|---------| A-7-9-10------10-9-7-9------------|0-1-0~~~~| E---------------------------------|0-1-0~~~~| A-------------------------4-3-1-0-|0-1-0~~~~| ....... The 0-1-0 bit is played after the above variation on the verse riff is played 4 times. Then the intro is repeated as the final section to the song. Legend . = palm mute \ / = slide down or up h = hammer-on p = pull-off * = pinch/artificial harmonic ~ = sustained note Lyrics Sebek Sochet Suchos, dread lord of the marsh He who crawleth amongst the sacred waters, and devoureth the flesh Of that which is sacrificed Unto him Tua Ashemu Tua Ashemu Rekhes au Sebek Rekhes au Sebek Tua Ashemu Tua Ashemu Sebek, Nefer, Ashemu Whose teeth rendeth and teareth with terrible violence Restore the eyes of the dead Collect the skulls Join their bones Together again Lord of the temple of the mount of sunrise Open the way unto the otherworld Cause the dead to rise to new life Bring the child Horus upon the throne Of Osiris
