When a chord slide takes place, I've tabbed it with either
a "/" for a slide up, or "\" for a slide down.
Verse:
[Bm/Dbm] The strong man he will [Em] kneel down[Dbm]
[Bm/Dbm] Whalst angels strip him of[Gbm] cloak and cro[Dbm]wn
[Bm/Dbm] Through bitter lips come[Em] vile breath
[Bm/Dbm] He is the last one[Gbm] to conf[Dbm]ess[Bm][Dbm]
[Bm/Dbm] There will be no [Em]pity for hi[Dbm]m
[Bm/Dbm] We must kill him where he [Gbm]stands[Dbm]
[Bm/Dbm] No there will be no [Em]mercy for[Dbm] him
[Bm/Dbm] Nor for any[Gbm] of his [Dbm]klan[Bm][Em]

Verse:
[Bm/Dbm] Let there be no[Em] hesitation
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/0-9/16_horsepower/strong_man_tab.html )
[Bm/Dbm] Get a rope and make it [Gbm]quick[Dbm]
[Bm/Dbm] Each last breath come[Em] from his mou[Dbm]th
[Bm/Dbm] I will beat it out[Gbm] with a [Dbm]stick[B][Dbm]
[Bm/Dbm] Pray boy you have no [Em] reservations[Dbm]
[Bm/Dbm] The word will be car[Gbm]ried out[Dbm]
[Bm/Dbm] He is the one who [Em] brought down the S[Dbm]on
[Bm/Dbm] Let there be no [Gbm] goddamn d[Dbm]oubt[Bm][Em]

Outro Jam:
[Bm/Dbm] There is power, [Em] wonder workin[Dbm]g power
[Bm/Dbm] In the blood [Gbm] of the Lam[Dbm]b
[Bm/Dbm] There is power[Em], wonder working p[Dbm]ower
[Bm/Dbm] In the precious b[Gbm]lood of the La[Dbm]mb
[Bm] th[Dbm]e Lamb
2nd:
[Bm/Dbm] There is power[Em], wonder workin[Dbm]g power

[Bm/Dbm] There is power[Em], wonder working p[Dbm]ower
[Bm/Dbm] In the precious [Gbm]blood of the La[Dbm]mb[Bm][Dbm]
[Bm] He's seated at the right h[Dbm]and
3rd:
[Bm/Dbm] There is power, [Em] wonder workin[Dbm]g power
[Bm/Dbm] In the blood [Gbm] of the Lam[Dbm]b
[Bm/Dbm] There is power[Em], wonder working p[Dbm]ower
[Bm/Dbm] In the precious [Gbm]blood of His hand[Dbm],
[Bm] His right [Dbm]hand[Bm][Dbm]
(Bm/Dbm Em Dbm)fading out
Well, that's the whole song. If I get some more time I'll
try to work out a straight tab for the verse. Feel free to email me
at [email protected]
I'm curious to know who's getting this tab.
