Rage against the Machine - Freedom
tabbed by Dennis Drögemüller
I learned the song from the tab done by Zero, so I have to credit him.
This is a correction of his tab, which already had a lot of mistakes in
it. I also added rythem, where I was able to do it. I'm very sure,
that this is pretty close. This is a very powerful, cool song, play
it loud or don't play it at all! Play with CD to get the feeling...
