/ Machine Head / Through the Ashes of Empires (2003) / Bite the Bullet guitar tab

Artist: Machine Head
Title: Bite the Bullet
Album: Through the Ashes of Empires

Note: This is one of my first real goes at tabbing, so go easy on me.

Tuning: Drop D, down 3 steps (B-F#-B-E-G#-C#)


Intro: (During sick drum bits) Uses wah and other cool sounding stuff

C#-------------------------------------------
G#-4-----------------------------------------
E -3-----------------------------------------
B -1-----------------------------------------
F#-1-----------------------------------------
B -1-----------------------------------------

This goes on for a bit, so strum the higher string, then the lower ones, etc. Just make it sound cool.

First Riff: (Heavy Distortion)

C#-------------------------------------------
G#-------------------------------------------
E -------------------------------------------
B -------------------------------5^----------
F#-------------------------------------------
B -0-0-0-0-0----0-0-0-0---0-0-0--------------
PM:x x x x      x x x     x x x

Play that riff 3 times without the harmonic, then chuck it in on the fourth time.

Verse Riff: (Clean)

C#-------------------------------------------
G#-------------------------------------------
E -8-----------------------------------------
B -8-----------------------------------------
F#-6-----------------------------------------
B -------------------------------------------

Just strum heaps for this bit.

Chorus: Where he sings \"You want more, you\'ll get it\"

C#-------------------------------------------
G#-------------------------------------------
E -------------------------------------------
B -1------10---6------------------------------
F#-1------10---6------------------------------
B -1------10---6---0356-0653------------------  Play this 3 times

C#-------------------------------------------
G#-------------------------------------------
E -------------------------------------------
B -10------6---5---3---6---5-3----------------
F#-10------6---5---3---6---5-3----------------
B -10------6---5---3---6---5-3----------------


Bridge: Not too sure on this bit, I just these three riffs where they fit best.  It\'s probably way off.

C#-------------------------------------------
G#-------------------------------------------
E -------------------------------------------
B -0-3-5-6-0-6-5-3---------------------------
F#-------------------------------------------
B -------------------------------------------

C#-------------------------------------------
G#-------------------------------------------
E -------------------------------------------
B -0-15-17-18-0-16-17-15---------------------

B -0-3-5-6-0-6-5-3---------------------------
F#-0-3-5-6-0-6-5-3---------------------------
B -0-3-5-6-0-6-5-3---------------------------

I think thats it for all the bits of the song.  If anything is wrong, fix it.
