The unforgiven   Metallica


[two versions]

Subject: The Unforgiven (Part I), Metallica

 	Unforgiven -Metallica
		++++++++++

There are actually 4 different guitars played in this song, so it's quite
difficult to type in the whole tabs, so I've left the rhythm guitar and
some fills off, but here is some kind of version to play along with
I hope you are satisfied. If you need the fills, email me, and I'll
try to find out a way to type them in a way that can be read. The rhythm
figure might be a bit easier, so I might make a ChordPro file out of it.

The timing should be right, 1/8 note equals to 0---, 1/16 to 0- etc.)

I've used two .s to indicate the repeat mark in the notes, I hope it doesn't
bother you

Slowly ( 0--- =69 )

Additional Lyrics:

2. They dedicate their lives to running all of his
He tries to please them all, this bitter man he is
Throughout the life the same, he's battled constantly
This fight he cannot win. A tired man they see no longer cares.
The old man then prepares to die regretfully
That old man here is me. (To Chorus)

Tabbed by:  Luke Chase (the next Jimi Hendrix, from Elk Mound High School)

I've looked everywhere on the net and couldn't find a tab for the guitar
solo in The Unforgiven.  Well, here it finally is!  Tabbing this out was
a
very painstaking process because I had to use the Midi To Tab program to
convert The Unforgiven midi into tablature, then I had to go through and
fix
it because the midi wasn't completely accurate.  Enuf complaining... so
here
it is!!!
