Notes:

(1) I'm not sure exactly what John Christ is doing here. There may be an

overdubbed tone on this note. You really need lots of distortion to make

it squeal. I think a cranked tube amp like a Marshall with a touch of

feedback does the trick!

(2) I think this actually sounds better just playing the 4th and 5th strings,

which is why I put the 6th string note in parentheses. It has a stronger

sound to it, since the flatted 5th isn't swallowed up by both the root and

octave tones.

TAB: TWIST OF CAIN (Intro) by Danzig

ALBUM: DANZIG

This is my basic guesse that I did using an acustic

guitar. This is my first attempt at play by ear so

don't haggle me if it is wrong!
