BULLS ON PARADE

RAGE AGIANST THE MACHINE

from:EVIL EMPIRE

written by zack de la rocha=20

and rage against the machine

lyrics by zack

tabbed by timjay(tim joseph)

whats up ya'll? here it is, after four long fuckin years, the new

album. ive been listening to zacks shit ever since inside out so its about

time he brought the new shit. as you know this is the first single off the

album EVIL EMPIRE. it was released sometime in march and whooped my ass the

first time i heard it. i could never get a tape in the stereo in time to

record it off the radio, so i had to figure it out by memory, until i saw

zack hoppin around on the stage of saturday night live(april 13). i watched

tommy play it so i know that this is the good shit. i read somewhere that

tommy tunes his guitar a half step down but i think it sounds just fine

normal tuning. i didn't put down how many times each riff is played for two

reasons. 1. i'm lazy, and 2. it's not hard to hear the changes for

yourself. here it is.

The solo is real fucked up. What you do is slide the pick and your

fingers up and down the fourth string. Changes in pitch are the result

of the hand slowing down and speeding.It's kind of like scratching a

record.

That's it, just those four riffs. Pretty simple huh. Just listen to the

song for the beat and the order of all the riffs.

Quit it now

The microphone explodes shattering the molds

Either drop the hits like de la o or get the fuck off the comode

Wit tha sure shot

Sure to make the bodies drop drop and don't copy

Yo don't call this a co-op

Terror rains drenchin' quenchin' the thirst of the power dons

That five-sided fist a-gon

Tha rotten sore on the face of Mother Earth gets bigger

The trigger's cold empty ya purse

Rally round the family with a pocket full of shells X4

Weapons no food not homes not shoes not need just feed the war cannibal

animal I

Walk tha corner to the rubble that used to be a library line up to the

mind cemetary now

What we don't know keeps the contracts alive and movin

They don't gotta burn the books they just remove 'em

While arms warehouses fill as quick as the cells

Rally round the family

Pocket full of shells

Rally round the family with a pocket full of shells X4
