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
Am      0 0 2 2 1 0 
C       0 3 2 0 1 0
Cadd9   0 3 2 0 3 0 
G       3 2 0 0 0 3 
Em      0 2 2 0 0 0
D       x 0 0 2 3 2

[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,
