Rage Against the Machine "Bullet in your head"

The song is basically very simple !! It isn't really too much
fun to play as there isn't much action going on, but here
goes...
After much e-mailing around the world I've finally settled on the
guitar over the verses. It's used with a harmonizer.
Play the natural harmonics at the 5th fret at shown over the
lyric "this time the bullet cold rocked ya"
The last time hold the harmonics and lower the pitch using the
tremelo arm.

verse:
this time the bullet cold rocked ya
(something.like Nazi salute..) and a swastika
nothing proper about your propaganda
fools follow fools (rules ?) when the set commands ya
you said it was blue
but your blood runs red
thats how you got a bullet blasted through your head
blasted through your head, blasted through your head
take a shot at the living dead
Guitar stops - some weird tones (noises) produced
using the pickup selector switch and one note over the vocals.
we stood and watched as the Feds cold centralized
so serene on the screen had us mesmerized
cellular phone sell me the death tone
(something..) turn you to stone before you realise
I'm doing this from memory now -
and I really can't remember the next vocals
....
....
....
and muthafuckers lost their minds..

End of Message
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 RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE 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.
