Tabs for
"Fuel (Feeding My Fire)"
Fuel (demo name, not definate)
written by Metallica
as performed on April 9th in Washington DC
tab by Phil Boyle and Richard Benson; ibzrg470@apk.net
Special thanks to Dan Walpole!!
!!!This tab will probably change 100 times before album #7 comes out!!!
I got a better copy of the song (on a really great video!!)
There is a copy of it on the soundfile page now, and (if you got
the mp3 of the Chicago show) you'll agree it's a billion times
better.This tab is probably as close as I'll get before the
album comes out.
Tune all guitars down 1/2 step
aprox 210-240 beats per-minute
intro "Gimme fuel, gimme fire, gimme that which I desire!"
