Ride the Lightning
Tuning: Standard (E A D G)
Original Bassist: Cliff Burton
Album: Ride the Lightning

Like every song Cliff played he used his fingers in this one, and it sounds great if you 
use your fingers like a real bassist.This song was very easy to tab out except for the 
solo. Its not hard to play but kind of hard to figure out.

KEY: *= Hold
     /= slide
     b= bend

LYRICS
Guilty as charged
But damn it, it ain't right
There is someone else controlling me
Death in the air
Strapped in the electric chair
This can't be happening to me
Who made you God to say
"I'll take your life from you!" 

Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flames 

Wait for the sign
To flick the switch of death
It's the beginning of the end
Sweat, chilling cold
As I watch death unfold
Consciousness my only friend
My fingers grip with fear
What I am doing here?

Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flames 

Someone help me
Oh please God help me
They are trying to take it all away
I don't want to die
Time moving slowly
The minutes seem like hours
The final curtain call I see
How true is this?
Just get it over with
If this is true, just let it be
Wakened by the horrid scream
Freed from the frightening dream

Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flames
