E---0--0-0-000-0-0---000-0-000-0-00--------------------------------
. . ... . . ... . ... . .. . . ... . ..
On the second time, there is a tempo break that I can't exactly
transcribe, you'll have to figure it out by yourself. The difference is that the E chord
lasts a little longer.
Chorus:
e------------------------------------------------------------------
b------------------------------------------------------------------
g------------------------------------------------------------------
d---5----9---7-----------------------------------------------------
a---3----7---5--7--------------------------------------------------
E---------------5--000000000000000---------------------------------
Strike a D5 chord and go back to intro riff.
Play verse again, chorus again, strike the D5 chord again and go to
this part:
e------------------------------------------------------------------
b------------------------------------------------------------------
g------------------------------------------------------------------
d---------------------4p3------------------------------------------
a----4-44-4-44-4-4444-----4-44-4-44--4h5p4-2-4-2-------------------

d---------------------4p3-------------5\4--------------------------
a----4-44-4-44-4-4444-------6--6--77--3\2--------------------------
E---------------------------4--4--55-------------------------------
.. .. .... . . ..
Repeat the first part, and then
e------------------------------------------------------------------
b------------------------------------------------------------------
g------------------------------------------------------------------
d---------------------4p3-------------7----------------------------
a----4-44-4-44-4-4444-------6--6--77--5----------------------------
E---------------------------4--4--55-------------------------------
.. .. .... . . ..
A flute enters. Guitar plays this:
e------------------------------------------------------------------
b------------------------------------------------------------------
g------------------------------------------------------------------
d----6-----6-----6--------4-----6--------4----6--------------------
a----4-4-4-4-4-4-4...-4-4-2-4-4-4----2---2--3-4... (repeat)--------
E------------------------------------0-----------------------------
. . . . . . . .
Strike C# 7 times before striking the B.
After this, repeat the whole first part again.
There's a strings part and then the guitar enters.
e------------------------------------------------------------------
b------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm not very sure if this strumming is correct. Good luck :P
e------------------------------------------------------------------
b------------------------------------------------------------------
g------------------------------------------------------------------
d---7-7-5-----5-----5-----5-----5-----------------------------------
a---5-5-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3... (repeat the chord 8 times)-----
E------------------------------------------------------------------
. . . . . . . .
e------------------------------------------------------------------
b------------------------------------------------------------------
g------------------------------------------------------------------
d----9-----12-10-9-------------------------------------------------
a----7-------------12-10-9--------10-------------------------------
E--------------------------12-10--8--------------------------------
This passage is very low... I'm not even sure if this is really a
guitar, but I guess it is. However, if you don't play it and go straight to the C chord,
no-one will notice :)
Well, after that:
e------------------------------------------------------------------
b------------------------------------------------------------------
g------------------------------------------------------------------
d----9-------7--------------------------7---9\---------------------
a----7-------5-------7------------------5---7\--------------------
E--------------------5---0000000000--------------------------------
..........
( I won't count how many times!)
Again, only strings... (Without yooou the poetry in me... blabla)

aaaaaaaah you don't expect my poor self to tab out all those fast
notes, do you? The only help I can ofer you is that it's in Eb major. Have a good time!
Later, after Emppu's epileptic attack, we have this:
