From RUNNING WILD, albun MASQUERADE

LIONS OF THE SEA, for guitar & vocals

This transcription is for a standard tuned guitar (E,A,D,G,B,e), but
I think that R.W. uses 1/2 de-tuned guitars & bass guitars.
So, if you de-tune your guitar, be careful: If you see in the tab, for
example, B chord:
--------- ----------
--------- ----------
---4----- ---5------
---4----- ====> DETUNED will be ---5------ played as C chord in a
---2----- --3------ standard tuned guitar.
--------- ----------
B B

...And the same for all the other chords & arpegios.

For playing, you only must get the timing of the CD and follow the "tab",
I write apart the different parts of the song. Follow the tab and you'll
find easy to read (or not...).

Ok. More things. All the chords are played like 5ths, this is:

G# B .... Etc. You got the idea.
e --------
B --------
G -----4--
D -6---4--
A -6---2--
E -4-------

I think that's all. For any question, mistake, CONSTRUCTIVE critic,
or to say me something, feel free to e-mail me at:

C# B E
They fight to be free
B C#
Roaming the seven seas of fate


Play the second verse with main riff:
They save their souls from black, from its evil void
Facing the challenge its coldness to destroy
They deny the temporal power, they deny their evil lies
They're strain at the leash until the evil dies

They brave the sea eternally, they tame the raging waves
Freedom is their destiny, the sea will be their grave

Ryhtm for the solo: play the main riff 4 times
play the chorus riff 2 times

After lead guitar playing the solo, play both guitars the intro riff twice.

They fight the scorning lie
Oppressions wall they will destroy
