Wake Up
Rage Against the Machine
Drop D  ( you know )
I was looking for a spot-on tab for this song, but I couldn’t find any, so I decided
 to take a crack at it. Im pretty sure that this all 99.9% correct, except for the
 solo which I skipped because I need more time to figure it out (does anyone have
 the tab book? That might have the solo in, if you do can you e-mail me the song
 please?). Sorry about the length but i wanted to get the tab perfect. Don’t say
 that im wrong because RATM have only got 1 guitarist, the only way you can get this
 song right is by having 2 guitars because of all of the overdubbing. Whenever there
 are 2 guitar parts one above the other, then they are synchronised. Anyway thanks
 to all you other guys’ tabs which gave me some help, but more importantly thanks to
 RATM for one of the best songs ever! Any questions or comments e-mail me at
 harrismeister2000@yahoo.com. Thanks, have fun. Harris.
