         This part I'll just put the chords. The lead part althought I knew
         part of it I prefer to improvise in the Gm scale. Just listen to
         the record to get the rythm.

                                    MAIN3
         Gm                F        Gm
         listen crowd I'll tell you everything though I have to say
           F          Gm                            F      Gm
         I don't know much talking about a past and future secret
                                Dm     D#    Gm                    F
         most call him once and future king far back in the past I saw his
         Gm                              F        Gm
         ending long before It started I knew his name he's the one who
                  F         Gm                         Dm      D#   Cm
         took the sword out of the stone it's how that ancient tale began

         I'm not sure about this one, if you think it's bad e-mail me and
         I'll check it out again.

         Gm               F   Gm                F          D#

         my friend Take him back to avalon I will wait and guard the future
         D#    Cm
         king's crown

         The music goes like this:
         INTRO(2X)
         MAIN1(2X, first time with FILL1)
         INTRO(2X)
         MAIN2(3X)
         MAIN3(2X, the first time don't play Cm cause you've played it in
              MAIN2)
         FILL2
         MAIN3(2X)
         MAIN4

         The VIVA Metalla version would now end so I'm not sure about the
         rest.

         MAIN1(with FILL1)
         MAIN5
         MAIN3(2X, the first time don't play Cm cause you've played it in

                P - Pull-Off
                A? - Means it's a A string, I'm just not sure if it's
                downed 1/2 step.
