SLAYER
BEHIND THE CROOKED CROSS
From their fine album 'South of Heaven'




Comments:


I didn't even attempt to do the solos.


Throughout the song play all downpicks. I know it's fast and your wrist
starts to hurt. Quit whining. Slayer is supposed to hurt.


As usual guitars are tuned to Eb. Hanneman has the left stereo channel.


Tempo 220 bpm (ie crazy fast)

Both Gtrs Play Riff C 3.5x with lyrics:


March on through the rivers of red
Souls drift they fill the air
Forced to fight behind
The crooked cross.


Both Gtrs play Riff A 6x lyrics after 2x:


Do only what is expected of me
With no emotions my feelings suppressed
Blind obedience carries me through it all
Conscience a word I learned to forget.
