THE THING THAT SHOULD NOT BE



From: bprenike@socs.uts.EDU.AU (Brett Phillip Renike)



This is my version of The Thing That Should Not Be.

It's all from memory, so some of it may be wrong.

There is a fill (Riff 9) near the end of the song which I can't remember

how it goes, so if someone could tab it, I'd really appreciate it.
