*- The Prince -*

*- By Metallica -*

*- Originally performed by Diamond Head -*

*- Transcribed by Fredrik Staaf -*



I recently received the Diamond Head version of this song.

It's actually quite good, but not as good as the Metallica version.

As usual in my tabs, I leave the timing to you.

Please let me know what you think of this.

Send e-mail (gy94frst@timra.se) to get in touch with me.
