Riff C: I'm a little uncertain about this one because the first bar
is quite hard to hear on the CD

A couple of points about the solo. For the octave part I think that
Karl uses his whammy bar but only very slightly. However, I think it
sounds OK without it.
Also, the bar marked with an asterisk is practically inaudible on the
CD but I think that its something close to what I've tabbed. You'll probably
notice that the next bar is difficult to get to in time
without a lot of excess string noise but unfortunately that's the
problem with a solo with two guitarists playing different parts!
If this part becomes too meddlesome or irritating I suggest that you just do a
long finger slide down the thicker strings with some whammy bar for good measure.

This next bar is like a 'tapped trill' and is just very fast tapping
(tap about 4 times per tabbed trill) with a single note as anchor.

Ending
Am the Uncreated God
Before Me The Dwellers in Chaos are Dogs
Their Masters Merely Wolves
I Gather The Power
From Every Place
From Every Person
Faster Than Light Itself
Hail To He Who Is In The Duat
Who Is Strong
Even Before The Servants of Serpents
He Gathers The Power
From Every Pit of Torment
From They Who Hath Burnt in Flames
From Words of Power Uttered By the
Darkness Itself
Hail To He in The Pit
Who Is Strong
Even Before the Terrors of The Abyss
Who Gathers The Power
From The Wailing And Lamentations
Of The Shades Chained Therein
From He Who Createth Gods From
The Silence Alone
