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.
