Battle Theme
By: Queen
This song is Battle Theme by Queen of the album Flash Gordon, I know its not really in
but it noticed that there aren't any tabs for it,
and it is a very cool song to play. I've divided up the song into 3 parts, riffs, guitar
and trumpet solos arranged for guitar.
NOTES: - The numbers above the tab is the time in the song that the part is played, as
parts are hard to find with so much going on.
- The = in the tab means hold, the length of the hold isn't exact, but it should
you a good idea when listening to the song.
- This is my first tab ever so feedback would be appreciated. thanks :)
