                                  MetallicA

I've seen one or two versions of this song on the net already, but none
of them seemed to be complete. Well this one isn't either (who am I to
break a trend?), but it does contain slightly more than most versions.
I don't think it's 100% correct (in fact I think it's downright dodgy),
so let me know if you have any additions or corrections.

This is played several times in a row near the start, the 7th fret note
is only played the first time.

This is the chorus riff; the last time you play this (the fourth time in
the second chorus), don't play the "scale" - hold the Gb for an extra
moment and then go on to Riff H.

This is played about four times towards the end of the solo-
It's difficult to hear this bit so I don't know which, if either, is
correct -let me know what you think.

Metallica - Escape | with lyrics
Lyrics: Feel no pain, but my life ain't easy I know I'm my best friend No one cares, but I'm so much stronger I'll fight until the end To escape from the true false world Undamaged destiny Can't get caught in the endless circle Ring of stupidity Out of my own, out to be free One with my mind, they just can't see No need to hear things that they say Life is for my own to live my own way Rape my mind and destroy my feelings Don't tell my what to do I don't care now, 'cause I'm on my side And I ...
