Take No Prisoners by Megadeth
TAB`d out by Frank A. Taylor - mork@oceana.sdsc.edu

I`ve seen a few requests for this so I thought I would TAB it for you lucky,
lucky people :) If ya see any mistakes or stuff then please let me know so I
can fix it! Or please drop me a line to say if the TAB was helpful - makes me
feel that my time typing it out was worthwhile! I have a lot of TAB that I can
type out that I`ll do if you ask nicely :-) Remember to contribute some TAB if
you can - enjoy!

You can use the basic two note power chords you just played to do the rhythm
for this part. This is what I play :)

E|--------------------------------------------
B|--------------------------------------------
G|--------------------------------------------
D|-------------------------0-------------5----
A|--4------5------4--------0------4------3----
E|--2------3------2---------------2-----------

And so on...

F#5   G5    F#5     D5  F#5  C5
Got   one   chance.

 F#5    G5      F#5     D5     F#5  C5
(In  -  fil  -  trate    them!)

F#5   G5    F#5     D5  F#5  C5
Get   it    right.

 F#5     G5     F#5      D5   F#5  C5
(Ter  -  mi  -  nate    them!)          The

F#5     G5      F#5     D5  F#5  C5
Pan  -  zers    will...

 F#5     G5     F#5     D5   F#5  C5
(Per  -  me  -  ate    them!)

F#5     G5      F#5    D5  F#5  C5
Break   their   pride.

 F#5     G5    F#5       D5   F#5  C5
(Den  -  i  -  grate    them!)

The chords then slightly change for four bars, you can use the same idea 
with the chords as before. Here are the extra chords used for this bit.

   G#5    B
|---------------|
|---------------|
|---------------|
|---------4-----|
|--6------2-----|
|--4------------|

A bit tricky to reach the G#5 from the B,so what I do is....

E|--------------------------------
B|--------------------------------
G|--------------------------------
D|-------------------4-------0----
A|--6--X--X--4--6----2-------0----
E|--4--X--X--2--4--------4--------

The exact rhythm for the G#5 and F#5 change is hard to hear but you can do
what you think sounds right :)

G#5    F#5      G#5     B5   G#5  D5
And    their    peo  -  ple.

 G#5     F#5   G#5      B5   G#5  D5
(Ret  -  ro  -  grade   them!)

G#5   F#5   G#5    B5  G#5  D5
Ty    -     phus,          (De  -  

G#5     F#5   G#5     B5    G#5  D5
ter  -  io  -  ate    them!)


Then back to the other chords.

F#5    G5    F#5     D5  F#5  C5
Ep  -  i  -  dem  -  ic.

 F#5     G5    F#5      D5     F#5  C5
(Dev  -  as  -  tate    them!) Take  no

F#5      G5     F#5    D5  F#5  C5
pris  -  on  -  ers.

 F#5    G5   F#5      D5   F#5  C5
(Cre    -    mate    them!)

We return to the chord backing done earlier, yay! :) I`ve tried to fit the
lyrics to the chords as close as possible.

TAB help

h - Hammer on
p - Pull off
> - Bend. The number following the > is an indication of hoo far to bend the
    string. So, 17 > 19 would mean to bend the 17th fret until the note sounds
    like the note normally played on 19th fret...that is one whole tone. If I
    have 16 > 17 > 16 > 17 or something similar - you bend 16th fret one half
    tone and then back to 16th and then again to 17th etc....
~ - Vibrato. Shake the string gently!
X - Percussive tone with no pitch. You can dampen the strings with your left
    or right hand and when you pick a note or strum a chord...No notes are
    heard but you can hear the percussive sound...Hey! Just in case you didn`t
    know :)
/ - Slide up. Slide from one fret to another. If no fret is given before the /
    then slide up from an indefinite point to that fret. Equally if no fret is
    given after the / then slide off the fretboard.
 - Slide down. Same as slide up but....wait for it! You slide..DOWN! :-)
P.M. - Palm Mute. Muting the strings with the palm of your pick hand.

Okay I`ve explained more than you need to know! If you don`t know what a pick
slide is or a rake then my guess is that you wouldn`t be able to play this song
anyways *whee*

`Life, death, sex. It`s pretty happening to me! What else is there?`
`Beer maybe?`

No Picture Average	#1 by nirvana at Feb 9, 1989 at 11:38 PM EST
	"Don't ask what you can do for your country Ask what your country can do for you" one of the best lyrics in the whole album. Im guessing this is a song about World War 2.

No Picture Will Average	#2 by Will Yost at Nov 11, 2000 at 3:11 PM EST
	This song is one of the small reasons why marty friedman left the band.

No Picture Len Badass	#3 by Len cullum at Jul 15, 2001 at 9:06 PM EST
	once freidman left megadeth became bad. listen to what marty is playing now its sad

No Picture HammerOffFreak Professional	#4 by HammerOffFreak at Sep 27, 2007 at 5:37 AM EST
	This song is indeed about World War II. It was not until after the album was recorded that Mustaine realised that, since lead guitarist Friedman is Jewish, having him sing about the Panzer divisions may have been somewhat insensitive.

No Picture Maarten Average	#5 by Maarten Wuyts at Oct 8, 2007 at 4:38 PM EST
	man what a scab, the Germans
