SONG: MARY JANE (YES, YOU READ THAT RIGHT!)
BAND: MEGADETH
ALBUM:SO FAR, SO GOOD, SO WHAT?
TABBED BY: GARETH RICHARDS
EMAIL: jackslackofsurprise@hotmail.com
I finally did it, i tabbed what i thought was the untabable. this song
has been haunting me since about 1989 when i first got into metal. i was
very bored the other night at home so i thought i'd finally give it a
try. it was not easy (it took me nearly 40 minutes to just get the
intro!) and there are a few bits that aren't quite right or are just in
need of a little tweek (there are some chromatic runs in there somewhere
but due to the production and general tiredness i didn't quite get them
down) so
please view this as as thorough a work in progress that i could muster.
12/8

i think that dave is playing full octave chords here, it's a bit tricky
and you need a strong left hand but here we go...

this next link riff is an absolute arse to get hold of but i've put down
what i think it is and it seems to fit, but like i said earlier this is a
work in progress so feel free to add any corrections
ok,

the tempo changes here, it slows down to allow for a double time feel.
sounds nuts but it's kind of true. i don't really think in bpm's so i
can't tell you what it is.

there it is then, i hope it works and that you enjoy palying it as much
as i do. it's yet another example of dave ellefson's amazing and under
rated skills.
cheers!
