THE EVIL THAT MEN DO - Difficulty- 8/10 -------------- This song has a fast gallop! The tune is great though and it is an all time Maiden classic. If I give you the lines I trust you'll be able to work out the arrangement (i.e. when different parts return etc) :) ~ = slide or hammer on/off # = mute/damp (achieved by pressing the fret half-down or putting another finger slightly on the next fret) |(notes)| = tuplet ! = accented (play harder on that note) {}= harmonics * = staccato (play the note shorter) " = tenuto (play the note to its full length) Beginning: G: -------------------------------------- D: -2---0-------0------0-2----0---------- A: ---------3------3-3-------------3----- E: -------------------------------------- Gallop #1!!: G: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- D: -2--2-2-2--2-2-2--2-2-2--2-2-2--2-2-2--2-2-2--2-2-2--2-2------------------------ A: ---------------------------------------------------------3--3-3-3--3-3-3--3-3-3- E: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------- ------------------2--2-2-2--2-2-2---- Repeat until "Livin' on a razors edge" -3-3-3-2-3-2-3-0--------------------- ------------------------------------- Lead to chorus: G: -5--4-2-0----------------------------------------------------------------------- D: ----------4-2-0-------------------------------------------0-4-0-2--2-2-2--2-2-2- A: ----------------3--3-3-3--3-3-3--3-3-3--3-3-3--3-3-3--3-3----------------------- E: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------0------------------------------------------------------ -2-2-2--2-2-2--2-2-2--2-2-2---2-0--0-0-0--0-0-0--0-0-0-4-0------------------------- -----------------------------------------------------------3--3-3-3--3-3-3--3-3-3-- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------- -----0--0-0-0--0-0-0--0-0-0--0-0-2- -3-3------------------------------- ----------------------------------- The chorus is DEAD simple so you should be able to work that out, the rhythm and notes are practically the same as shown above.
