Some Kind of Monster Guitar Tablature
This is some kind of monster from the album st. anger by metallica. There is one other tab I saw but I tried the intro and I think its wrong so I will just try my own. Most of this is palm muted but I didn’t have time mark what was palm muted. 

The tuning is dropped C.
( ) = harmonic

F  ------------------------------------------------------
C  ------------------------------------------------------
G ------------------------------------------------------

And thats the whole song. It should all be very close and in order of the song. I watched the st. anger dvd also to try and get most of it perfect. Im just not sure about the last part didnt really try too hard to figure it out. Any corrections, go ahead.
