Allright, this is one of my favourite songs by Emperor, so that's why i decided to tab it!
And btw. Please be kind, this is my first tab. :)
I'm a little bit insecure on figure 5 and 6. I'm not sure if i got them right, because
was so fucking confusing. :P Anyway, here's the tab :D
Tuning: E standard

E|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
Play figure 7 four times.
Figure 8:
Btw. those "1111111111111111" are not F notes. Those are E flats. Which means they are
not one.

A|--4----------4-4--(keyboard part)----|

Then there is this similar riff that you play but figure out when to play it and stuff
it's not hard at all to figure out.

B|-------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------| Play as many times as necessary.
D|--7----------7-7---------------------|

Then you just continue to play the last two figures until fade out.
And that's it! :D Hope you enjoyed the tab as much as i did when tabbing it! :D
A rating would be nice too btw. :)
e-mail me for corrections if you find any. As said before, I think I messed up figure 5
6, but it's possible that it turned out alright anyway.
