                        TEN TON HAMMER - Machine Head
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Artist: Machine Head                       Tabbed By: Dissolution213
Album: The More Things Change...           Email: Dissolution213@gmail.com
Song: Ten Ton Hammer
Tuning: Drop B (B F# B F G# C#)

Note: Notice the 3rd string tuning, it is tuned from E to F. Don't ask me why,
it makes the harmonics sound better. Robb Flynn said it himself.
