  NOWHERE can I ever find any FATES WARNING tab (ESPECIALLY the old stuff)....
so in case there's any other FW freaks out there, I decided to post my
transcription to KYRIE ELEISON, from their second album.
  If there are FW fans out there....email me and I'll try to post a few
more.  At the moment, I've only figured out TRAVELER IN TIME, THE CALLING,
KYRIE ELEISON, and parts of IVORY GATES....but I'm planning on transcribing
more when I get some time.

  This is just the tab.....I don't even want to THINK about how painful
actual sheet music would be to try and post.....but if you know the song
it should be fine.
  Just for sake,
    ~~   = vibrato
    ^    = bend  (amount marked above staff; 1/2 = half step, 1 = whole step)
    v    = unbend (without re-picking note)
    \, / = slides
    xx   = fret hand figers lightly muting the strings to make a clicking
           sound when picked.
    3(4) = One guitar hits 3rd fret, the other hits 4th fret.
           (Though this song doubles rhythm guitar in most places.)
    p11  = pulloff to fret 11
    h13  = hammer on to fret 13
    p.m. = palm mute
       ....etc.....

KYRIE ELEISON,
"The Spectre Within" (1985)
