Cat Scratch Fever - Pantera (Ted Nugent cover)

I was looking for tabs for this the other day and they were all
incomplete... so I decided to do it myself. (I'm still missing the
solo, but I'll tab it out eventually when I have the time.)

For this part, just palm mute the open A string whenever you use it.
The main riff is pretty much the same as this, except with a
different fill. Here:

On this part, the B and E string fill is played on a second guitar,
while the first one goes on with the regular riff.

                            p.m...........

That's pretty much the song, but there are more different fills that
come in on a second guitar over the first one. Here is a list of all
the seperate fills:

fill A1                        fill B1
                                   / 3 \

Keep in mind this list of fills is not in order, but the order that
they come in is shown at the bottom of this tab in the song
structure.

The timing isn't right for the D5 and B5 chord lengths. They last 
a fairly long time each, compared to other chord durations in this 
song. Listen to the song for the right timing.

In the section after solo A, the main riff just keeps playing while
the lead guitarist does some more fancy fills over it. Here is
another list:

fill A2                       fill B2
e|----------------------------|-----------b17~---------------------

fill E2
e|----------------------------
B|--b15r-13-------------------
G|----------------------------

I don't think they are all correct, as it is kind of hard to hear
with all the feedback he is using, but they are close enough.

Play this main riff five times while the second guitar is playing
the second solo.
