"Jump in the Fire" by Metallica from the album "Kill 'em all"

originally released by Megaforce Records, rereleased by Elektra.

Written by James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich and Dave Mustaine.

Transcribed by Brant Katkansky (bmk@teleport.com, brantk@atlas.com)

Key:

~~ Vibrato

=== Tied notes

__3__ Triplets

R Rest

Numbers above staff show duration of note/rest (8=eighth, 4=quarter, 2=half,

1=whole,4.5=dotted quarter, etc.)

I've attempted to get the exact timing, but there's some parts (in the

second riff, for example) where I'm not sure I transcribed perfectly.

Listen to the song if you can't seem to get it.

I didn't transcribe the lead because I don't know it.

[RIFF 1]

[Verse 1, play RIFF 2 underneath]

Down in the depths of my firey home

The summons bell will chime

Tempting you and all the earth

To join our sinful kind

There is a job to be done and I'm the one

You people make me do it

Now it is time for your fate and I won't hesitate

To pull you down into this pit

[Chorus, play RIFF 1 underneath]

So come on

Jump in the fire

So come on

Jump in the fire

[Verse 2, play RIFF 2 underneath]

With hell in my eyes and with death in my veins

The end is closing in

Feeding on the minds of man

And from their souls within

My disciples all shout to search out

And they always shall obey

Follow me now my child not the meek or the mild

But do just as I say

[Repeat Chorus]

[Play RIFF 3 several times behind lead (not transcribed)]

[Verse 3, play RIFF 2 underneath]

Jump by your will or be taken by force

I'll get you either way

Trying to keep the hellfire lit

I am stalking you as prey

Living your life as me I am you you see

There is part of me in everyone

So reach down grab my hand walk with me through the land

Come home where you belong

[Repeat Chorus]

[Play RIFF 2 several times behind lead (not transcribed)]

[Fade]
