I n t o t h e S t o r m Blind Guardian - Nightfall in middle-earth Greeting Blind Guardian fans, here is my Into the Storm tab, I could not find any tab on the net, so i decided to do it myself.Im not a very good guitarist, so don't go mad if you discover some bad tabbing in this tab (or the whole file!) I believe I atleast got the whole intro right. Intro ----- E|--------------------------------------|-------------------| B|--------------------------------------|-------------------| G|--------------------------------------|-13----13-12-------| D|-----11-----9-----12p11-11-11p9-------|----11-------11-9--| A|--------------------------------10/11-|-------------------| e|-9-9----9-9---9-9---------------------|-------------------| P.M . . . . . Repeat the first part twice and then E|--------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------------| G|-13----13-13------9-TREMOLO-DOWN-&-UP-| D|----11-------11-9-11------------------| A|--------------------------------------| e|--------------------------------------| Verse #1 -------- Give it to me, I must have it precious treasure I deserve it w/ this Riff When you've reached the third line break into this with the E|-------------|second guitar: B|---------5---| D|-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-and-so-on-| G|-----4---4-4-| P.M . . . . . . . . . D|-6-----5-----| A|-4-4---------| e|-------------| P.M. . Now this part is very much like the earlier, just on a higher level. Verse #2 -------- Where can I run How can I hide The Silmarils Gems of treelight Their life belongs to me E|-------------| meanwhile guitar 2 does some really wird stuff, B|-------7-----| i think he's mutes the bass string with his left hand... G|-8-6---6--6--| or somethin' like that, neatly fitted between the tones D|-----9-------| from guitar 1 A|-------------| e|-------------| A|-6-x-x-x-x-| If you ain't satisfied with the part above, do this combination thing below E|-------------------| B|---------------7---| G|---8---6-------6--6| D|-----------9-------| A|-6---6---6---6-----| e|-------------------| P.M. . . . Now there's this pre chorus wich I can't figure out right Pre Chorus ---------- Oh, It's sweet how the darkness is floating around... Because im a worthless transcriber, I don't dare to write down the high pitched stuff. Chorus ------ I suspect this isn't really a guitar, rather a synt, but anyway... E|-------------------| B|-11----11-10-------| G|-------------------| D|----13-------13p11-| We're following the will of the one... G|-8-------------------------6-----------8----|-15p13-15-11h13-15p13-15-| D|-8--------------9----------6-----------8----|-------------------------| A|-6--------------9----------4-----------6----|-------------------------| e|----------------7---------------------------|-------------------------| ... Through the dark age and into the storm G|-(8)-----------------------6----------------| D|-(8)------------9----------6-----------9----| A|-(6)------------9----------4-----------9----| e|----------------7----------------------7----| skip the first power chord when you repeat the chorus, and then... Lord I'm mean!!!!! Bridge ------ G|---------------------------| D|-1-----4p3-4---------3-----| A|-----------------------6p4-| e|---0-0-------0-0-0-0-------| P.M . . . . . . Now this fourth verse part comes, witch is a little different from the first one, unfortunatly i don't have the strenght to tabb it right now-- Verse #4 -------- Blackheart show me, what you hold in your hand, I still hunger for more Release me From my pain Give it to meee!!! Funky synt part comes How I need it! How I need it!!! HOW I NEED IT!!!!!! and then repeat from verse two. When you come to the bridge part break into the solo instead. Solo 1 ------ Unfortunatly, im a worthless solo tabber, and this one ain't short so, I'v only got the beginning (and I don't even know if that's right!) B|-----------------------------------------------------------------| G|-----15-15-14-15-----15-15-14-15-----15-15-14-15-14^-14^-14^-14^-| D|-/13-------------/13-------------/13-----------------------------| FROM THIS PART, DON'T TRUST MY TAB! B|----------------------------------|-------------------------------| G|----15-14h15p14-13----13-15-13----|-14-15-13h15----------------15-| D|-13----------------16----------16-|-------------16-15-13-15-16----| B|----------------------------------------------------------------------- G|-15----------15----------15--------------------------14-15-17-15h17p15- D|----16-15-13----16-15-13----16-15-13-15-16--13-15-16------------------- B|-------------| G|-14----------| D|----16-15-16-| And that was the incomplete dirty tabbed solo! Now theres some other version of the intro and then Verse #6 (same riff as Verse #1) -------- I did my part Now it's your turn And remember What you've promised and then repeat from verse two again. After the bridge break into Outro -------------- R1 repeat 3x R2 B|----------------|------------------------------| G|----------13-12-|-8-x-x-x-10-x-x-x-11-x-x-x-15-| D|-13-11-13-------|-9-x-x-x-11-x-x-x-13-x-x-x-13-| A|----------------|------------------------------| Play the first part over again and then: R4 repeat 3x B|----------------------| G|-11-10-11----11-------| (I think this is orginally synt) D|----------13----13-12-| A|----------------------| end the song with this G|----------------------| D|----------14-15^------| A|-13-15-16----13^------| Nice and neat!
