Holier Than Thou by Metallica
Transcription by Tim Scott

This is a non-spoon feeding type of tab.  It gives enough information 
on how to play the song and leaves the player the task of counting
how many times a rhythm is played, the changes, etc...


Intro Rhythm 1
    ____  ___3___  ___3___  ____  repeat umpteen times....

Repeat the riff and the extra end and end it like this

-----------------------------------|---------------------------------------
----5--7-----5--7-----5--7>slide>14|---------------------------------------
--9-------10-------11--------------|---------------------------------------
-----------------------------------|---------------------------------------

I haven't got the solo entirely down (that damn wah-wah screws me up) but
I also don't plan on posting it when I do...So good luck with that..

With this info you should be able to figure out most if not all of the
song...Have fun with it...

Metallica - Holier Than Thou
Holier Than Thou is the third song on the album Metallica (The Black Album). Lyrics: No more! The crap rolls out your mouth again Haven't changed, your brain is still gelatin Little whispers circle around your head Why don't you worry about yourself instead Who are you? where ya been? where ya from? Gossip burning on the tip of your tongue You lie so much you believe yourself Judge not let's ye be judged yourself Holier than thou You are Holier than thou You are You know not Before you judge ...
