               As recorded by Mastodon
           (From the 2007 Album BLOOD MOUNTAIN)

Transcribed by Ryne Allen (ryneallen@hotmail.com)

This isn't 100% correct but it's pretty damn close. The only parts i'm unsure of is the
at about 2:36 into the song. The other part i'm not sure of is the riff that ties back
the beginning riff of the song. Other than that it should be pretty accurate. Listen to
song to help with the timing. METAL UP YOUR ASS!!!
