Song: The Reflecting God
Artist: Marilyn Manson

Tabbed by Andy Morrison
I tabbed because I was surprised no-one had
tabbed it yet. So here it is just for you,
so that you can scream in fits of wrath, passion and
general malevolentity.
"SHOOT! SHOOT! SHOOT! MOTHERFUCKER!"
Tune your guitar to a dropped D.
