  [Lotsa solo stuff]
 
 Damned fast, but not hard. Usual pentatonic minor soloing.
 
People, this is the end of the solo. I think it's the kewlest sounding part,
so thats all I bothered to figure out.
Listen to the CD, and this is exactly how it sounds. I'd say this is the last 30 seconds of the solo.
Right when
James is going into the routine chorus progression.

If you're like me, and don't have 24 frets on your guitar, then you'll have
an awful lot of hard bending to do from the 21st. I play a Stratocaster.
I have no idea what Kirk plays this with.
 
 
[Bridge]
 
 (Half Time Feel)
 
 (This is the "Die, by my hands..." part)
 
 Each chord is a half note, except the E which is 4 quarter notes using only
the bottom string. The progression is like this:
 
 E5 E E E E F5 D5 E5 E E E E G5 F5 (x3)
 
 Then it's Ryth Fig 3 for 6 bars. On the sixth bar, another gutair plays the
following:
 
e||-----------|
B||-----------|  Go back to where the singing originally started. Play it
G||-[~3~]-7\--|  through with the third verse, and when you hit the @ sign,
D||-2-3-5-7\\-|  go to this next part.
A||-2-3-5-5\\-|
E||-0-1-3---\-|

           Something for 4 bars... Probably one of the above riffs.
 
  Ryth Fig 2 (twice) Then it's free time.
 
  Then it's 4 chords, with a slight retard:
 
e|-----|-----|---|

G|-*---|-----|---|
D|-*---|-----|-2-|
A|---7-|-5-5-|-2-|
E|---5-|-3-2-|-0-|
            Trill
 
  Now, in the Exact same bar where the E5 Trill starts, this scale starts, with
 two guitars.

                                  H                    H       P  P
 
  And of course, it ends with 2 hard E5 chords, and a slide to nothing.
 



Slaves!
Hebrews born to serve
To the pharaoh
Heed!
To his every word
Live in fear
Faith!
Of the unknown one
The deliverer
Wait!
Something must be done
Four hundred years
So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first-born pharaoh son
I'm creeping death
Now!
Let my people go
Land of Goshen
Go!
I will be with thee
Bush of fire
Blood!
Running red and strong
Down the Nile
Plague!
Darkness three days long
Hail to fire
So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first-born pharaoh son
I'm creeping death
Die by my hand
I creep across the land
Killing first-born man
Die by my hand
I creep across the land
Killing first born man
I!
Rule the midnight air
The destroyer
Born!
I shall soon be there
Deadly mass
I!
Creep the steps and floor
Final darkness
Blood!
Lambs blood painted door
I shall pass
So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first-born pharaoh son
I'm creeping death

Slaves!
Hebrews born to serve
To the pharaoh
Heed!
To his every word
Live in fear
Faith!
Of the unknown one
The deliverer
Wait!
Something must be done
Four hundred years
So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first-born pharaoh son
I'm creeping death
Now!
Let my people go
Land of Goshen
Go!
I will be with thee
Bush of fire
Blood!
Running red and strong
Down the Nile
Plague!
Darkness three days long
Hail to fire
So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first-born pharaoh son
I'm creeping death
Die by my hand
I creep across the land
Killing first-born man
Die by my hand
I creep across the land
Killing first born man
I!
Rule the midnight air
The destroyer
Born!
I shall soon be there
Deadly mass
I!
Creep the steps and floor
Final darkness
Blood!
Lambs blood painted door
I shall pass
So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first-born pharaoh son
I'm creeping death

Live in fear
Faith!
Of the unknown one
The deliverer
Wait!
Something must be done
Four hundred years
So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first-born pharaoh son
I'm creeping death
Now!
Let my people go
Land of Goshen
Go!
I will be with thee
Bush of fire
Blood!
Running red and strong
Down the Nile
Plague!
Darkness three days long
Hail to fire
So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first-born pharaoh son
I'm creeping death
Die by my hand
I creep across the land
Killing first-born man
Die by my hand
I creep across the land
Killing first born man
I!
Rule the midnight air
The destroyer
Born!
I shall soon be there
Deadly mass
I!
Creep the steps and floor
Final darkness
Blood!
Lambs blood painted door
I shall pass
So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first-born pharaoh son
I'm creeping death
