Divine Intervention Tabs

(ver. 1)
Slayer
Well here's my TAB of Slayer's Divine Intervention, the title track off their
new album.  I'm not 100% sure about one or two of the chords in Riff 2 but
it's all here.  (Full lyrics are included)
If anybody spots any mistakes be sure to let me know!  :-)

Enjoy...

Lee.

NB: I'm not 100% if these rhythm 0/2's are heavy palm-mutes or played open and
    then quickly muted, maybe it's a combination of both - suggestions as always
    are more than welcome!  :-)

Lyrics:
-------


Awaken
In a Web like hell
How did I reach this place
Why are they haunting me
I cannot look at God's face

Paralyzing
Brilliant light
Trying to run
Want to scream but cannot speak
I cannot look at God's face

(Lead: King)

Blind my eyes I can't see
What is being done to me
In my mind only pain
All the memories are drained

Victimized
Specimin
Deathless torture
Void with no mercy
Black shroud blinds those who see

Violated
Naked before you I stand
Shattered shrine of flesh and bone
God's piercing through my soul

(Lead: King)

(Lead: Hanneman)

Segments of my life
Morbid pieces of reality
Twisted personality
Many faces yet faceless
Familiar things give way to strange
No mercy no reason just pain

Fatal
Sub-concious control
Threshold of pain unfolds
Transfixed martyr saving race
Who am I to judge thy grace

Awaken
In a web like hell
How did I reach this place
Why are they haunting me
I cannot look at God's face

(Lead: Hanneman)

Blind my eyes I can't see
What is being done to me
In my mind only pain
All the memories are drained


The End.
