Comments: I got the main idea of the song from Dimebolt's version, but there were some
missing parts and some others were wrong. He nailed the intro riff, though. Anyway, I
like mine better. Keep in mind it's a lot easier to correct a tab with of mistakes than
it is to make your own tab with a lot of mistakes in it from scratch. That being said,
e-mail me if you spot a mistake, and I doubt you will. Later, Demigods and Fallen
Elders.
