by Running Wild
Taken from the album

Edited 9.8.1997
I think RW uses standard tuning in every song... :)
Here's another fine song from Running Wild. It is quite easy to play
but it was difficult to transcribe... so e-mail me if you find mistakes.
The timing seems to be correct most of the time but I had some problems
with the rythm guitar in the solo so listen to the record if you have it.
There might more hammer-on's, pull-off's and slides so add them if you
like. E-mail me your opinion about it!!
NOTES:
- Tempo is about 200, and it's played in 4/4 time;
----------------------
H = Hammer on, P = Pull off, S = Slide, Ah = Artificial harmonic

Hey Mr. Custer, why d'you dare the hand of fate
The claw of death waits to grab
A golden medal, your honor idolized
Your heart is stone, yout blood is iced

Last fight at Little Big Horn Where the last command was given
And all the soldiers fought in vain

(Verse riff 4 times)
The soldiers're riding unprepared for the attack
A touch of death, the shotguns crack
The blood is flowing, the desert sand turns red
Why did you lead them to this trap?
(Bridge & Chorus)
(Fade in the C# (10 fret) from 1st string and let it ring until the solo)

Solo: (It appears to be close enough but it's the first solo that I've
transcribed... Theere is NO timing written here in the solo!! So
don't wonder why the first part of the solo lasts only 8 measures
while the Solo fig.1 during it lasts 16... ;)
