A Heavy song of Bruce Dickinson. I´m not sure
but I think that Roy Z and Adrian Smith both
used bass strings in this song like in
some others in the Chemical Wedding because
it sounds very heavy to me or maybe they tune
their guitars differently, anyway here
goes the version with the guitar tuned just
like I tabbed: Taking the queen
and The Ghost of Cain. Enjoy!

Riffs 2:

The other guitar plays this along with this solo.
I figured out two ways to play it.
This is one way:

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

This is the other way:(choose the one you like more)

Basically both are the same

E-------------------------------------------------------
B-------------------------------------------------------
G-------------------------------------------------------
D-9-------9-------9---9-1112-9-------9-------9---9-12-11
A-7--7-7--7--7-7--7-7-7-9-10-7--7-7--7--7-7--7-7-7-10-9-
E-------------------------------------------------------
     pm      pm    pm           pm      pm    pm
