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):

        E A D G B E

[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,
