Killers (solo)

Solo to Killers by Iron Maiden

                 Copied and edited by Eddie Breslin


It's impossible to be 100% accurate tabbing a solo like this (so I
didn't, I edited somebody elses) so concentrate on isolating the 
individual phrases and how they link together.

                 The open B is hardly heard as the high notes should be
                 hammered very quickly.

                the high notes.
