Verse


    The verse has the same chords that the part above, but they're
played with distortion. Hear very carefully the song so you can catch
the rhythm.


Solo:

(The easy part)

E MajorE|---------------------------------------------|
BB|---------------------------------------------|
G+G|-7--7-7-9-10-9~-10-9-7--7--------------------|
D MajorD|--------------------------10-8--8-7-5-7^-7~--|
A augmentedA|---------------------------------------------|
E MajorE|---------------------------------------------|

E MajorE|---------------------------------------------|
BB|---------------------------------------------|
G+G|-7--7-7-9-10-9~-10-9-7--7----------5-7~------|
D MajorD|--------------------------10-8-7-5-----------|
A augmentedA|---------------------------------------------|
E MajorE|---------------------------------------------|

E MajorE|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
BB|---------------8---------------8-------------------------------------------
G+G|---7~---7-9-10---10-9---7-9-10---10-9--7-----------------------------------
D MajorD|-7----7---------------7------------------10-7-7^-7~------------------------
A augmentedA|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
E MajorE|---------------------------------------------------------------------------

E MajorE|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
BB|---------------8---------------8--------------10^-10~----------------------
G+G|---7~---7-9-10---10-9---7-9-10---10-9--7-----------------------------------
D MajorD|-7----7---------------7------------------10-7------------------------------
A augmentedA|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
E MajorE|---------------------------------------------------------------------------


{Solo-Really-Fast-Difficult-To-Catch}

Solo:

(Again, an easy part)

E MajorE|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
BB|-------10-6-8~-------10-6-8-6----------------------------------------------
G+G|-7-7-7---------7-7-7----------------10-7-9~-------10-7-9-5--------7-3-5----
D MajorD|------------------------------8-8-8---------8-8-8-----------5-5-5----------
A augmentedA|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
E MajorE|---------------------------------------------------------------------------

E MajorE|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
BB|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
G+G|-------10-7-9-------7----7-5---5-7---7-5---5-------------------------------
D MajorD|-7-7-7--------10-7--7--7-----7-----7-----7---------------------------------
A augmentedA|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
E MajorE|---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Then, comes the Chorus again, the last verse, and the outro,
that is similar to the Intro, so you can get it easy.


    If you have an idea about the Really-Fast-Solo, or if you
want to talk about another Iron Maiden's Tab, feel free to drop me
some lines about it.
