*- 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.

Rhy. Fig. 1 Play 17 times (solo starts fifth time)
