Artist: Metallica
Album: St. Anger
Track: 04, Dirty Window
Tablature Author: Brad Thomas

The tuning is unique. I believe it's in D, but I play it in C, because it is not only
very close, but the majority of the songs off this album are also in C.

This is absolutely my first attempt at tabbing anything at all, so if there is any
questions, comments, or corrections, feel free to e-mail me at Lepersmessiah@aol.com.
This is just my way of playing it. Hope this helps someone.

Scraping to the rhythm of the snare drum for the intro. Played as a chord, later.

Palm mute this and use a generous amount of dinamics with a halftime feel. Play twice.

Play, pause and tap with the snare, play again, and bend and release. Repeat.

This riff goes along with James yelling "...Rejector". Played with a lot of dinamics.

This list of riffs are repeated four times. The second time the first riff is played only
twice, the third and four times it is played several times to a vocal line. The last two
times, they skip right from the second riff to the clean riff and contiue on like that.
Have fun with this. Metal up your ass!
