A fun song to play.  Just a quick note:  Michael Poulsen doesn't adhere to the "downpick everything" like
a lot of hardcore Hetfield fans (like myself).  It's hard to get that "groove" going in this song doing that.
This song is good practice getting that "loose" alternate picking down.
 
I didn't mark all the Palm Muted notes...you can most likely tell where they go.
 
Tuning:  D Standard (down 1 whole step)
