HOLY DIVER - KILLSWITCH ENGAGE TABBED BY GEORGE WILLIAMS GUITAR 1: JOEL STROETZEL CGCFAD GUITAR 2: ADAM DUTKIEWICZ CGCFAD GUITAR 3: OVERDUBBED ***I HAVE CHANGED THE WHOLE SOLO. IT WAS BOLLOCKS BEFORE SO I SAT DOWN AND FIGURED IT OUT BY SLOWING DOWN THE SONG SO ITS 100% CORRECT :)*** legend: | b bend | r return | / slide up | \ slide down | h hammer on | p pull off | * pinch harmonic | ~ tremolo | ... palm muted | x muted note | (n) optional note THIS TAB TOOK ME AGES TO DO, AND IM PRETTY SURE NEARLY ALL PERFECT. THERE ARE SOME PARTS OF THE SOLO WHICH I'M NOT TOO SURE ABOUT, BUT THEY ARE IN THE RIGHT SCALE SO JUST WORK WITH THEM, AND I WILL CONTINUE WORKING ON THE SOLO... I HOPE YOU LIKE IT AND PLEASE COMMENT WITH ANY CORRECTIONS U MAY HAVE. THANKS A LOT =) p.s. go easy on me if it's bollocks, im only 14 =] INTRO |-----------------------|------------------|------------------|----------|
