The grande finale of Midian. What would Cradle be w/o keyboards? ...much
easier to tab, that's certain. this one is not only long, it has tons of
different sections and only few repetitions. playing this live should do
for a decent memory excercise :)

Key: varies... f# minor, d minor, g minor
Tuning: D G C F A D (low to high, drop-down D)
Legend: in tabulature: under tabulature:
~ tremolo picking pm . use palm muting where dots are
x stuccato bend -> pick first note above arrow
\ slide down and bend to second note
*\ pick scratch down h p hammer-on/pull-off
Note: Sometimes you will see capital letters in the tab. these are
fret numbers in hexadecimal (A=10, B=11, C=12 and so on=). I
use them to transcribe the rhythm correctly, so that frets
10 or higher don't require 2 digits. you'll get used to it :)
let notes ring unless noted otherwise. Except for a few licks
where it just wouldn't fit the timing in the tabs resembles
the rhythm exactly.
