|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|*-------------------------------------------------| (Gtr. 1 & 2)

|*-5'----------------%-----5'----------------%-----|

|--5'----------------%-----5'----------------%-----|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--3'----------------%-----3'----------------%-----|

. . . . . . . .

(1/2 bend) (1/2 bend)

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--4-----------------------------2-----4-----2-----|

|--4-----------------------------2-----4-----2-----|

. . . . . . . .

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|-------------------------------------------------*|

|--4----------------------------------------------*|

|--4-----------------------------------------------|

|--2-----------------------------------------------|

. . . . . . . .

Play twice, then once more along with this (the numbers in

parentheses are bends):

(Part D--4 measures)

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--5----(6)---(5)---(6)----5----(6)---(5)---(6)----|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

. . . . . . . .

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--5----(6)---(5)---(6)----5----(6)---(5)---(6)----|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

. . . . . . . .

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--4-----------------------------2-----4-----2-----|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

. . . . . . . .

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--4-----------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

. . . . . . . .

Now play part D again but with this instead of part C:

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--3----------------------(5)-------------------(3)|

. . . . . . . .

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--3----------------------(5)-------------------(3)|

. . . . . . . .

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--4-----------------------------2-----4-----2-----|

|--4-----------------------------2-----4-----2-----|

|--2-----------------------------0-----2-----0-----|

. . . . . . . .

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|-------------------------------------------------*|

|--4----------------------------------------------*|

|--4-----------------------------------------------|

|--2-----------------------------------------------|

. . . . . . . .

Go back and play everything except the intro again, then freestyle

the F (6th string 3rd fret and 4th string 5th fret) notes for 8

measures (slow bends), then comes the FHP--***ing heavy part:

(FHP)

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|*-------------------------------------------------| (Gtr. 1 & 2)

|*-2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----5-----5-----5-----| (And maybe 3)

|--2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----5-----5-----5-----|

|--0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----3-----3-----3-----|

. . . . . . . .

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|-(5)----5-----5-----5-----5-----5-----5-----5-----|

|-(5)----5-----5-----5-----5-----5-----5-----5-----|

|-(3)----3-----3-----3-----3-----3-----3-----3-----|

. . . . . . . .

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----5-----5-----5-----|

|--2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----5-----5-----5-----|

|--0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----3-----3-----3-----|

. . . . . . . .

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|

|--5-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4----*|

|--5-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----|

|--3-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----|

. . . . . . . .

Play FHP 8 times.

Lyrics:

rise

shining blank

scars burn way down.

it parts ways of the

serpent view. cast

stones where to stop

calling you. they all

lower me to the ground.

stick him. they all

lower me to the soil.

stick him.

star. reign down

on you.

you'll starve.

bright star in the

dripping sun

writhe on. saints

steal from your actions.

step in right on its

function. stick him.

star. reign down

on you.

you all lower me

christs shine blinds

your world.

your belief is scars.

the will to power.

ascension manifest.

that which is above.

is as that which is below.

that which is below

is as that which is above.

thy will be done.

thy kingdom come.

on earth as in heaven

so mote it be.
