Subject: CRD: Mama Said by Metallica
"Mama Said" by Metallica, from the album "Load."
Transcribed by Daniel Meijer
&
Some have bagged this as "country music" which is crap, it takes more
than a pedal steel to make country music. It's more like Led Zeppelin's
"Tangerine" than anything else. "Load" is great (and I love Master of
Puppets), it shows a new depth to the band's songwriting.
Some of the lyric transcriptions might be a bit out, feel free to email
me any corrections!
In the intro and verses, play around with the Dm and Am chords....turn
them into Dmsus2, Dmsus4, and Amsus4.
Tune down a 1/2 step.

This is the way how I play this song
I guess , I`m sure, this is the best version on internet
But I have to say that the intro I play a little bit different,but
it doesn`t matter:-)
Anyway I didn`t figure it out and author`s name is in the title

Hi guys!
That's a gr8 song from the 'new' Metallica : it's in their last album,
'Load'. It's called 'Mama Said'. I've found out only the chords : forgive me
if they're not right! :^)
Main Verse : C#min ( listen to the song to find out when you have to move your
little finger to the 7th fret of B string and then back
again )
B - G#min
Chorus : 3x C#min - B - G#min - F#
1x C#min - B - A - F# - G#
Then what we can call a Second Chorus : C#min - F# - B - E
which finishes like the Chorus : C#min - B - A - F# - G#
If you play it one half step higher, it becomes much easier. Sounds like :
Dmin - C - Amin etc... I think Metallica have their guitars tuned this way
for this song.
That's all! Sorry if there aren't the lyrics, but I'm Italian and I haven't
time to find them out now ( I've got my exams at University! :^) ). Please
e-mail me if this has been of some use for you ( and also if you have the
lyrics.. ;) ).
Ciao,
Stefano ( mc9350@mclink.it )
