The song is awesome…mythical, majestic…truly a modern classic!
Dave Murray takes the 2nd lead in this one and totally out does himself. I think
his best recorded solo ever. It is blistering and short, but is a total mini-composition that
his taste and mastery of lead guitar.
Tuning: E A D G B E

For the chorus, which progresses from D, to A sharp, to C, Adrian Smith continuously
the D bar chord during the entire chorus and strums palm muted like this, so make sure to repeat:

Dave Murray splashes this in at the beginning of the chorus and towards the end of the chorus.
You know the part I’m talking about-

After the solos, comes the harmonizing lead guitar’s (which you probably already know
to play), but just wanted to add this lick, the 2nd scale run at the higher notes, which
and must be played quickly-
05:19
