Well that's it. It's some kind of a tricky song (especially with the
improviations, but if you hear it carefully there sould be no problem).

I've tabbed the basic riffs. Put them together by hearing the song.

"When a man lies, he murders 
   some part of the world.
  These are the pale deaths
 which men miscall their lives.
     All this I cannot 
  bear to witness any longer
    Cannot the kingdom of
   salvation take me home?"

      - Cliff Burton
