Dickinson Bruce - Arc Of Space guitar tab

Arc Of Space - Bruce Dickinson

transcribed by Chris MacAlister

A wonderful little acoustic piece, of the 'Accident of Birth' album

debatably his best to date. Nice and easy for rythum guitar, but get's

a bit bitchy for the lead, especially if your playing acoustic as on

the CD. Rythum, remember the hammerons and pull-off used on all the Am's

and some of the verse dm's listen to the CD to see what I mean.

This all my own work so bits may be out. But it sounds fine when played

along with the CD.

Verse 2

I was very upset the first time I looked up Bruce songs

on OLGA only to find 'Tears of the dragon'. Great song.

But probabally the easiest to figure out, bar the solo.

This wasn't too bad to work out either, but I'll try

and get some more. And anyone else out their who likes

Bruce please help. If you have any corrections or info

on the run at the end of the solo you can reach me at
