                                  Phantom Lord
                                  By Metallica


    I've included as much of this song as I know. This is the second posting of
this (the 1st update). In this update I've added the intro, the part after the
acoustic (non-distorted) part, and a lot of comments and and stuff on how to
make what isa tabbed sound better. And as always...have fun.

Tabbed by Paul Halvorson

Intro after fading in Bass.

 Main Riff. This is played all throughout the song, including right after the
 intro and between verses.
