Don't Tread On Me
by: The Mighty Metallica
This song isn't in OLGA, or wasn't anyways..., so I thought I'd post it for
you die-hards out there who just have to know how to play every Metallica
song ever. It's not terribly difficult, so here it goes.
All gtrs tune down 1/2 step

Eb
Tablature Explanation
p.m. - palm muting
^ - bend, above the staff is the amount of bend
F - full step 1/2 - half step 2 - two steps...
tr~~~- trill between note and note in paranthesis
H - Hammer on
P - Pull off
Note, in part of the solo, i placed the Hammer ons and pull offs
above the staff to make reading easier. I also used lower case
and upper case for the same reason. There is no difference in
the meanings.

So be it.......
Touch me again for the .........
Don't tread.....
Love it or leave ........
Quick is the blue tongue........
Shining with brightness......
The eyes, they never close.......
Say, Don't tread .....
Welp, I hope you guys like it. Took me a while, but a figure it's worth
it to keep all the Metalli-friends jamming. Oh, don't give me any crap
about not putting in the Rythem section under the solo... It's not perfect
but it's as close as care to come.... Hopefully, I'll be sending more
stuff your way soon.
