Rise Against - Black Masks And Gasoline guitar tab
Title: Black Masks and Gasoline
Artist: Rise Against
Album: Revolutions Per Minute (2003)
Instrument: Guitar
Tabbed by: anarchypeach (theused000@adelphia.net)
Tuning: Standard (EBGDAE)
Notes: Here's the tab, I'm 99% sure that the notes are correct, so far I've got
everything but the 4th chorus time (I'm having ahard time differentiating the two
guitar parts, if *anyone* knows how it goes, please e-mail me and you will be credited)
Also, throughout the whole song, 2 guitars are used, where one keeps playing the heavy
parts to keep the whole song heavy. However, it sounds absolutely fine with one guitar.
Anyways, in the tab E is equal to 11.
Have fun and enjoy, it's a great song to play.

Bridge (1st and 3rd time)
Note: During the bridge, in the first measure of the 3 G# powerchords, the little squeaky
effect between the chords is created by lifting your weight on thje string so you are
only touching it a little bit, then strike the low e. Add some distortion, and there you
have it.
