"Sam Hell" by Helmet
from the album "Betty"
words and music by Page Nye Hamilton
tabbed by Tom Mallon
This is played on a six-string banjo. I figured it out reasonably
well on a guitar in Dropped-D tuning. If you find something that's
incorrect or might sound better, by all means post it.

There are various solos/fills played on an acoustic guitar in the background.
However, solos aren't my strong point. If anyone wants to take the time to
figure out and post them, have fun.
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official HELMET tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
