Hear very carefully the song so you can catch the rhythm. Here are the lyrics: Have you run your fingers down the wall And have you felt your neck skin crawl When you're searching for the light Sometimes when you're scared to take a look At the corner of the room You've sensed that something's watching you Solo: (The easy part) E|---------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------| G|-7--7-7-9-10-9~-10-9-7--7--------------------| D|--------------------------10-8--8-7-5-7^-7~--| A|---------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------| G|-7--7-7-9-10-9~-10-9-7--7----------5-7~------| D|--------------------------10-8-7-5-----------| A|---------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- B|---------------8---------------8------------------------------------------- G|---7~---7-9-10---10-9---7-9-10---10-9--7----------------------------------- D|-7----7---------------7------------------10-7-7^-7~------------------------ A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- B|---------------8---------------8--------------10^-10~---------------------- G|---7~---7-9-10---10-9---7-9-10---10-9--7----------------------------------- D|-7----7---------------7------------------10-7------------------------------ A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- {Solo-Really-Fast-Difficult-To-Catch} Solo: (Again, an easy part) E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- B|-------10-6-8~-------10-6-8-6---------------------------------------------- G|-7-7-7---------7-7-7----------------10-7-9~-------10-7-9-5--------7-3-5---- D|------------------------------8-8-8---------8-8-8-----------5-5-5---------- A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- G|-------10-7-9-------7----7-5---5-7---7-5---5------------------------------- D|-7-7-7--------10-7--7--7-----7-----7-----7--------------------------------- A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
