Song: Master of Puppets Artist: Metallica Album: Master of Puppets Track: 02 Length: 8:38 Tabbed By Mike Wilson Tuning: Standard (eBGDAE) I am sure this is at least 90% correct. I have been playing guitar for nearly 2 years. This is my first tab. Sorry, I don’t have Kirks Solo. It is too hard for me to figure out. Enjoy.

Lyrics: Verse 1
End of passion play, crumbling away I`m your source of self-destruction Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear Leading on your deaths construction
Chorus: Taste me you will see more is all you need you’re dedicated to How I`m killing you Come crawling faster Obey your Master Your life burns faster Obey your Master Master
Master of Puppets I`m pulling your strings Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams Blinded by me, you can`t see a thing Just call my name, `cause I`ll hear you scream Master Master Just call my name, `cause I`ll hear you scream Master Master Verse 2: Needlework the way, never you betray life of death becoming clearer Pain monopoly, ritual misery chop your breakfast on a mirror
[Chorus] Bridge: Master, Master, Where`s the dreams that I`ve been after? Master, Master, You promised only lies Laughter, Laughter, All I hear and see is laughter Laughter, Laughter, laughing at my cries Verse 3: Hell is worth all that, natural habitat Just a rhyme without a reason Never-ending maze, drift on numbered days now your life is out of season
