Skin Ticket by Slipknot
Tabbed by Jason

This is an amazing song. It’s not as fast as most other Slipknot 
songs but it captures a pure feeling of complete psychosis…I love it!
A few notes about this song: the tuning is drop A, NOT Slipknot’s 
usual drop B. That means tune your low E string down to D, then tune 
the entire guitar down 2 ½ steps. (Low to high: A E A D F# B)
Also, effects are very important in this song, use a wah pedal and 
various effects on Riff 1.

Notation Key:
/   -Slide
<5> - Harmonic
pm  - Palm mute
b   - Bend ½ step
#   - Tremolo picking

Riff 1 (use as many effects as possible)

That’s it, a fairly complex song but it shouldn’t be too hard to 
figure out where all the riffs go. Send questions, comments, and
