Walkthrough

This song is typically considered the easiest song in the game. It is also the first song you must play in Career to move on. The beginning is very easy, and it repeats itself multiple times. After the introduction, the guitar part can really jam peoples' fingers if the player doesn't know what they're doing because of its constant change of chords and will continually repeat itself for a while. The end of the song is very similar to the beginning of the song. To make playing this song's intro easier, the intro is bells, drums, and yes guitar, using three fingers will make the player's fingers jam less and will make hitting the notes much easier.

Trivia

• The song is a lyrical adaptation of Earnest Hemingway's novel of the same name.
• The title of the popular TV series My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic season 4 episode "For Whom the Sweetie Belle Toils" is a reference to the song.
  • However, it's never stated whether this is a reference to Metallica's song or Earnest Hemingway's novel.
• The opening riff is often mistaken for an electric guitar, when it is actually a bass riff created by the late Cliff Burton.
