IRON FIST - Mot�rhead
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed By : nilschpilsch
Hello everyone, here is my version of iron fist by mot�rhead.
I've seen some videos in which Lemmy plays this song in drop �-step tuning, but
it's perfectly playable in standard tuning so thats why I tabbed it in standard
tuning.
Please don't nag about this tab not including every single fill or rhythm Lemmy
plays, because that's impossible to tab all out (and pretty pointless). Instead I
tabbed down one version of the riff and you can use that one all the time or
change it to your liking every now and then.
The chorus rhythm follows the crash of the drums and the rhythm of the last three
chords of the chorus can be clearly heard in the fade-out part (if you have
trouble nailing it). Furthermore, the chorus is in chords, because I think it
sounds cooler, but you can also play single notes.
