Take My Scars by Machine Head from the album 'The More Things Change...' Transcription by Keith Railton (keefa@disposable.com) A word about tuning - on the album the guitars are tuned down one tone to D, and -then- the low D string is tuned to C. Phew! If -you- wanna tune down like that, get some 11's or 11/10 hybrid strings, you may also have to adjust your truss and/or intonation! Anyway this is how it's played... --------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES: A '+' sign indicates these parts should be played simultaneously (with different guitars obviously... heh) Rhythm One should be played palm muted, your mutes should gradually get lighter, so that by the 7th repetition it is played with no mutes. Rhythm Eight is nice. It's played by moving the picking hand over the strings (across them [i.e. vertically], not along them), to get a scratchy squeaky sound. It is doubled by the other guitar playing the rhythm with muted strings. The solo isn't worked out perfectly, but it'll give you a basis to work on, I'm pretty sure that solo is un-repeatable! The vibrato is huge, especially on the first four notes... In fact on all the bends :). During the Pre-Bridge, Rhythm Three is used again, this is played in much the same way as Rhythm One, with light mutes, the picking getting heavier while the muting disappears.

for a thousand years And it'll be here for plenty more It is the face hidden in disgrace That has become now an open sore It is a false messiah It is the face of pain The bringer of the bittersweet The heretic insane Chorus: Take my scars Through hands of God I found a better way To break the walls Verse Two: Fed all the lies and desensitized Taught to believe that it is the way Taught to divide and exactly why You'll never understand my rage You've never had to borrow You've never had to steal You eat it with your silver spoon For me it's real Bridge/Outro: Blood and concrete Piss and wine Whores that fuck To feel divine They'll clean their needles In their shrine In ignorance It's bliss you find Why can't you fuckin' open up your eyes? --------------------------------------- Keef -
