I tabbed this cause I like this song. As simple as that. And I like tapping
and this song is basically 80% tapping so I decided I would give it a try.
I have included two guitars (one for the original part and one for the
Octave part). Good luck. And since there really isn't any Verse/Chorus
separation, I just separated the parts in Intro part A, Intro part B, Intro
part C, Verse 1, Interlude, Verse 2, Bridge, (Solo part A, Solo part B,
Solo part C, Solo part D), Verse 3, Outro. Once again, good luck guys. Oh
and this tab is 99% accurate gauranteed.
(The solo is complicated so I separated it for your convenience)
Oh and I don't think I did good on the lyrics, so don't count it against me.
NOTE:
* Tapping is just like holding down a fret with one hand (left)
and "Tapping" a higher fret on the same string with you other hand (right).
For example:
Fives are held with left, and higher frets are tapped by right
|-5-7-5-8-5-9-5-6-5-7-5-8-5-8-5-7-5-6-| |-------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------|
It is basicly fast hammer ons and pull offs. *
NOW let's get started!
Legend:
T | Tap note
h | Hammer on to
p | Pull off to
/ | Slide up to
\ | Slide down to
. | Palm mute
~ | Held note
b | Bend to
r | Release bend

Verse 2:
Guitar 1 and 2 play the following.
Same format as the first Verse.
You k[G5]now that silence
Is no[F5]t our middle name
Can you reco[G5]gnize the g[F5]ame
[D#5]Step into the g[D5]ate and
[D#5]Grasp the hand of f[D5]ate
Its a ti[G5]me machine, a dev[F5]ils dream
And [G5]yet its in your g[F5]rasp
Le[D#5]gends of the [D5]past
Can you h[D#5]ear the Banshee s[D5]cream
Ba[G5]nshee howling in the city
M[F5]eans a knight has died
For what re[G5]ason, for what g[F5]lory
Who k[D#5]nows for what p[D5]ride
C[D#5]ountry king or [D5]criminal
[G5]War or vengeance, w[F5]hat the Hell?
[G5]Death is all the [F5]same
If he [D#5]died in shame or H[D5]onor
[D#5]Who on Earth can [D5]tell?
