Note: Of course you can play it like this... 4|-6\4---------|
                                             5|-4\3333333...|
      ...and so on but the way I wrote is the way Morbid Angel
      probably played it on the recording of the song. I've seen
      early live footage with them when they play it like this.

Riff 1 X2

Riff 4 X4 (Verse 2)

Riff 2 (Chorus)
But now I think they play the ending like this, though I'm not sure:
|-------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------|
|----------------8--------------------------|
|----8\7------------------------------------|
|-7--6\5--6\5555-6-8\777-7\666-6\555-5\444--|
|-5-------4\3333---6\555-5\444-4\333-3\222--|
             ...      ..    ..    ..    ..

Riff 1 X2 (Solo Richard Brunelle)

Riff 4 X4 (Verse 3)

Riff 2 (Chorus)

Riff 3
Now with a different ending for both guitars:

|-333333-666666--------666666-333333-666666-3--3----------|
