Deicide - Slave to the Cross Submitted By: Sqweeky EMail: Blindside831@aol.com Album: Serpents Of The Light 1997 Roadrunner Records tabbed by Hellspawn (effigy29@hotmail.com) Usually, one dash is a 16th note. In this song, there is two different time signatures (4/4 & 12/8). So, at 4/4 ---- is one beat, and at 12/8 ------ is one beat. The verse riffs in this song seem to be played at 32nd note, because of this, -------- is one beat. Unlike all Deicide songs, which the tuning is 1/2 step down, in this one, the tuning is 1 1/2 step down.

If you think you got something better, you're free to correct it. After transcribing all the riffs and the two first solos, I didn't much feel like figuring the third, probably because of a lack of concentration. So there are the first two that Eric plays. Exceptionally for this part, you have to listen to the song to get the timing.
