Here's the way I play Wake the Dead from the Praxis album "Metatron".

Let notes ring:

E--3--------------|-7---------------|-3h5p3-----3-----|
B----3------------|----3------------|-------7---------|
G------0----------|-------0---------|-----------------|
D-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
A-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
E-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|

E--3--------------|-7---------------|-5---------3-----|
B----3------------|----3------------|-------7---------|
G------0----------|-------0---------|-----------------|
D-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
A-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
E-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|

repeat first 2 over and over... then:


E-----------------|-----------------|-----------------||
B-------8---8-----|---------7---7---|-------7--8----5-||
G-----0---0-------|-------0---0-----|-----0-----------||
D---0-------------|----0------------|---0----0----0---||
A-7---------------|--5--------------|-3-----3----3----||
E-----------------|-----------------|-----------------||


E-----------------|-----------------|-----------------||
B-----------3-----|-----------3-----|------7-----8---5||
G--------0--------|-------0---------|----0------------||
D-----0-----------|----0------------|--0-------0----0-||
A--2--------------|-2---------------|3--------3----3--||
E-----------------|-----------------|-----------------||


E-----------------|-2323232323232---|-----------------||
B-----------------|-----------------|-----------------||
G-----------------|-----------------|-----------------||
D-----------------|-----------------|-----------------||
A-----------------|-----------------|-----------------||
E-0---------------|-----------------|-----------------||

3 times
E--------0--------|-----------------|-----------------||
B----------0------|-----------------|-----------------||
G------0-----0----|-----------------|-----------------||
D--2h4------------|-----------------|-----------------||
A-----------------|-----------------|-----------------||
E-----------------|-----------------|-----------------||

Then do it with an Asus2Asus2 six eighth notes starting on the A augmentedA string.

like:
X O 1 2 O O Fingers
-----------
I I I I I I 1
I I * * I I 2
I I I I I I 3
I I I I I I 4
I I I I I I 5
E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE

The solo is pretty easy to figure out. Slap some major fuzz on that lead
tone to get that violinesque timbre :)
