Anthrax

Anthrax - A.i.r. guitar tab

Song: A.I.R.

Artist: Anthrax

Album: Spreading the Disease

Transcribed by: Andrew Nelson, terraform7@hotmail.com

This is my first tab, I decided to put it up because there aren't many Anthrax tabs out there, especially from their old CDs. It's probably wrong, especially the one solo that I've figured out. ^_^;; Don't ask for the other solos, please, if I knew 'em, they'd be on here. Corrections are welcome.

Intro Riff (x8)

Main Riff (x7)

Intro solo backed by Main Riff (x4)

Verse-

Young and free somethin' you'll never be!

A childhood's end it's lunacy!

Pure dictation, they don't listen!

You just wait for what you're missin'!

Main Riff (x4)

Pre-Chorus-

Welcome to your nightmare,

You just can't walk away,

It's time for you,

To choose,

Your fate,

You just can't let it lay,

Welcome to a nightmare,

Your whole life's on the way,

Today,

Chorus-

You're no good,

Misunderstood,

A.I.R.,

All their hopes and visions,

Of what they want you to be,

Crucial times,

Made up minds,

A.I.R.!

So high and mighty,

Though much too blind to see,

Main Riff (x4)

Verse-

Who're ya gunna live your life for?

Conformity will trap you like a locked door!

Independence means owning your decisions!

Authority will put your soul in prison!

Main Riff (x4)

Pre-Chorus-

Welcome to your nightmare,

You just can't walk away,

It's time for you,

To choose,

Your fate,

You just can't let it lay,

Welcome to a nightmare,

Your whole life's on the way,

Today,

Chorus-

You're no good,

Misunderstood,

A.I.R.,

All their hopes and visions,

Of what they want you to be,

Crucial times,

Made up minds,

A.I.R.!

So high and mighty,

Though much too blind to see,

Bridge Riff (x2)

Bridge-

Fight! Fight, or go insane,

There's no one else to blame,

Stop! Stop, their influence,

You can't give them a chance,

Break! Break, right through the wall,

That seperates us all,

Start! Start, your second life,

Without their hands in sight!

Bridge Riff (x6)

Main Riff (x4)

Intro Solo backed by Main Riff (x4)

Verse-

You got your pride you got your visions!

Don't subside don't ever give in!

Don't compromise, just keep on grinnin'!

The games they play you just keep on winnin'!

Main Riff(x1)

Keep on winnin'!

Keep on winnin',

Keep on winnin'!

A.I.R.!
