Cushing Belial Guitar Tablature 
      Transcribed by;Beowulf
 Alright, finally I've overcome my laziness enough to fix all the little  
      errors in my previous tab and transpose it to the correct tuning...sorry 
      for the delay. Anyhow, this is complete except for the really quiet  
      acoustic chords strumming under the slow guitar solo; if anyone can  
      figure these out, please email me.  

      ..  - palm mute            Suffixes for bend 
       /  - slide up to    ph - pinch harmonic 
         - slide down to         f - full bend    
       ~  - vibrato     h - half bend 
       h  - hammer on             r - release       
       b  - bend     ~ - vibrato bend 
       p  - pull off             
       t  - tap 

      "  - shred (tremelo until next note) 
      *  - see comment          
      X  - percussion mute      
      @  - slight palm mute      
      () - ghost note, sustained note 
      ^  - artifical harmonic 

      Tune Gtrs down one whole step to D (D G C F A d)
