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....
--|-|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|-|-----------------------------------------

(brackets signify the chord is held over from previous measure..)


   Lead in to rhythm 2

Riff before solo    (Repeat once)   (Repeat twice with this added to end)
---------------------------------|-----------------------------------------
---------------------------------|-----------------------------------------
--------------------------------.|-----------------------------------------
-----------5-7-8-----------8-7-5.|---5-7-----------------------------------
--7--4-6-7-------7--4-6-7--------|-8---------------------------------------
---------------------------------|-----------------------------------------


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...

Video Holier Than Thou

Metallica - Holier Than Thou
No video, just the song! Kick ass!

Metallica- Holier Than Thou (Spongebob Version)
The 6th most viewed Spongebob/Metallica crossover on Youtube! Heres Spongebob rockin' out to Metallica's "Holier Than Thou" from their legendry black album. If you like this, check this video out; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPtF-T01ntA

Holier Than Thou [Premiere] - Metallica (Live 1991)
Downloads, Video/Audio bootlegs & more on my site. Updated daily, new features daily! Check it out here : http://www.linkbucks.com/link/176772aa Metallica playing Holier Than Thou live for the FIRST TIME EVER!! This is probably the fastest song on The Black Album and was only played a few times in the 90's with Jason so I consider this another rare video with The Shortest Straw And Eye Of The Beholder. Ripped from my Metallica Dvd collection enjoy

Metallica - Holier Than Thou (Bremen 2004)
Rare performence of this song. Kick ass.

Metallica - "Holier Than Thou" cover
My take on Metallica's "Holier Than Thou", including solo. Recorded using: - BC Rich Warlock (Bronze Series) - Boss Equalizer Pedal (to boost guitar signal) - Johnson J-Station (set to rectified) Just having some fun. :)
