This is the bassline that you can hear during the guitar solo's and at the end.
I havn't found the tabs anywhere yet (previous bass tab helped me a little tho)
so I had to tab it out myself. You can find the beginning of the song somewhere
else or you can find out for yourself, not that hard.
For the timing listen to the CD.
Let me know what you think about it. If you find mistakes / flaws, let me know
It sounds pretty darn accurate to me, haha.
(I tabbed this from the album version "Iron Maiden - Iron Maiden")
Tuning: Standard tuning
