Ashes In The Fall Guitar Tabs by Rage Against The Machine

Hey all. This is my rendition of Ashes in the Fall by Rage Against the Machine. There may 
be minor errors but it all seems right to my ear. You will need a whammy pedal and some 
mid-tempo delay. Maybe a wah to boost the higher frequencies but that can be done with a 
simple EQ. Anyhoo, here's the tab, it is my first so please excuse errors. I find it to 
be a quite excellent song, big shame they fell apart.

Now in this part I'm not too sure on how to get the various harmonics going
Just play around with it til you get something that sounds like it should

Unfortunately, this is another riff that is fairly elusive to my ears. it sounds correct 
to me but I'm not 100% sure.

For Fig 7. Just play an A at 10 on the B string and mess with the whammy pedal while 
fading out

That should be it for the song!
