** INFECTED
** off the album CAUSE OF DEATH
** by Obituary
** Transcribed by Kevin Phillips, kphill@iconz.co.nz

Well, I was pleased to get some reaction from my 'Cause of Death' tab,
and I was asked for INFECTED.  So, I scanned through a huge wad of paper and
found a few pages of TAB.  Note that Most of this could be wrong.. 
I don't have a Guitar to check all the riffs out (TAB is 4—5 years old!)
so I've been using Scream Tracker to experiment.  The guitar effects 
are nowhere as good as the real thing, but I guess most of it sounded right!

If you have tabbed it, corrected it or find any problems then gimme an email
with your questions, Tab or corrections.  Thanks!

Until I get my Guitar back, I am almost Tabbed out, so don't ask for too many
more requests please!!  (See my Tabs — Slayer/Death/Obituary/Sepultura on
Nevada or one of its mirrors!)  I still have the odd bits of TAB around, though!

Enjoy!

LYRICS  (yes..REALLY!)
——————————————————————
Someone asked me for the Lyrics (Urhm.. Hmm.. Tough job!) and I mentioned that I
had read an interview in some magazine where John Tardy said that he was more
a 'Vocal Instrument' and simply used words and noises that went with the songs.
I Thought this could be good for a laugh!!  If you think up some other versions
let me know... Lets see who can get the closest!!!


** First Verse:

I believe below  ("Rhye believe below??")  (Who knows!)
we're getting the destiny
                /My rotting soul
we pray it hides the soul
Living life will fall.
                /Aaaarrggghhhh!!
The killing is anylee (?)
We're checking out to die
                /The other side
We pray it hides the world
                /Aaarrggghhhhhh!!! (Again!)
Living is only.. Live...


** Second Verse:

You love the soul
we're giving one to say
                /I love the soul
we're dying now in pain
we're giving the soul
                /Aaaaarrrrggghhhh!!

** Chorus: (This was Easy!!)

Kil—ling
Send you to your grave
dy—ing
soon with one the same
Tear—ing
rid you of your limbs
infected soon
infected

** Lead Guitar break, then

Peal—ling
Rid you of your skin
Infected
        /Infected

Com—ing
Soon the end of life
Dy—ing
???? ??? ???? in fright

sharrrrrr!!!!!

Eaaa—aaarrr!!!!

Heh! Heh!!  Now, That should keep a few of you amused!
