Tabs
Kamelot - Until Kingdom Come
Source: 'The Fourth Legacy' & 'The Expedition' - [CD]
Music and Lyrics by: Youngblood/Khan
Tuning: Standard 'E' tuning
Main Time Signature: 4/4
Key Signature: G+G
Tone/Effects: Distortion, reverb
Tab Accuracy: On the live album, the guitar is tuned down 1/2 step but
it is still fretted as shown here. There is no timing in the tab, you
will have to listen to the song to get the timing of the notes. The
format is a little awkward, but I wanted to get something on the site.
I will improve on it and resubmit. Any comments?
