Subject: Tab: Bruce Dickinson; Tears Of The Dragon
Tears Of The Dragon by Bruce Dickinson
from the album Balls To Picasso
Transcribed by Misel Lukic (dvlmlc@cs.umu.se, luka@ts.umu.se)
The intro was originally tabbed by Carmen J Pezzone
(cpezzone@magnus.acs.ohio-state.edu) but I made a few small changes.
This is how I play the chords (of course there are other ways):

[Verse]
Am
For too long now
C Cadd9 Am
There were secrets in my mind
For too long now
C Cadd9 Am
There were things I should have said
In the darkness
C Cadd9 Am
I was stumbling for the door
To find a reason
C Cadd9 Am
To find the time, the place, the hour
Em
Waiting for the winter sun
G D
And the cold light of day
Am Em
The misty ghosts of childhood fears
G
The pressure is building
D
And I can't stay away
[Chorus]
Em C G D
I throw myself into the sea
Em C
Release the wave
G D
Let it wash over me
Em C
To face the fear
G D
I once believed
Em C
The tears for the dragon
G D
For you and for me
Am
Where I was
C Cadd9 Am
I had wings that couldn't fly
Where I was
C Cadd9 Am
I had tears I couldn't cry
My emotions
C Cadd9 Am
Frozen in an icy lake
I couldn't feel them
C Cadd9 Am
Until the ice began to break
Em
I have no power over this
G D
You know I'm afraid
Am Em
The walls I built are crumblig
G
The water is moving
D
I'm slipping away
[Chorus]
[Solo]
Am Em
Slowly I awake
G D Am
Slowly I rise
Em
The walls I built are crumblig
G
The water is moving
D
I'm slipping away
[Chorus] x2
[Outro]
This is the first time I've tabbed a tune so be nice to me if you
find any mistakes. It sounds pretty good to me, but if you have
suggestions of changes just drop me a mail. If you think it's good,
feel free to send me praises ;-).
Cheers,
