专辑:First Strike Still Deadly
For those who dont know much about Testament: They released this song on their 1987's record "The Legacy".The old Version has been tabbed a lot of times, but this tab is the re-recorded version of Testaments 2001 record "First Strike Still Deadly", featuring John Tempesta on drums and Steve DiGiorgio on bass. I used different audio-editing programs like Audacity to figure all drum and guitar parts out, but espacially in the solo it was impossible to get an idea of what Alex Skolnick plays because you could only hear a "noise" (I marked all special parts with a dead note on the E string) After alsmost every powerchord, they slide up or down to the next note. I wrote it down in the beginning of the song but in fact, you will play it your way and i just wanted to make clear that this songs version is different from the 1987's one.

Summoned to the house of seance
To play the evil tarot cards
To find out what our fate will bring us
Before the war
Approaching now the hour of tiamat
Evil feelings in the air
The chosen wait impatiently
To find the rituals of power
Come out of the fire
Making the legacy known
Takes its toll at last
Now knowing when it strikes
The endless feuding shows its fate
The people are all shocked with fright
They know the end is coming near
It's time to fight
The revolution holds on strong
The armies have all met their match
Entire world up in arms
Destruction sees the spirits of anger
Come up from the gallows
Conjured my demons appear
Summoned to my cast,prey this deadly mass
Takin by the fire you fail
The world became a vast wasteland
Survivors turn to cannibals
Killing everything in sight
Warfare tonight
The armies are all closing in
The populations getting small
Feelings are as cold as ice
Survival names it's price
Starting to burn
The rape and violence grows high
A kingdom will rise
To rule with contempt
They will surprise
Kill and repent
The weakness in armies
"Won't die"
Leaving now the house of seance
Speculating destiny
Wonder if the cards were true
Will wait to find out and will wait to see
