CHEMICAL WEDDING
                         As recorded by Bruce Dickinson
                   (From the 1998 Album THE CHEMICAL WEDDING)

Words by Bruce Dickinson
Music by Bruce Dickinson/Roy Z
Transcribed by Jefferson Camargo (JEFFMETAL)

E-mail: utopianblaster@terra.com.br

 This is the title track of the masterpiece by Bruce Dickinson's fantastic
solo band! This tune has this odd setting of Roy Z with a guitar tuned
in standard mode and then Adrian with his axe tuned 2 1/2 steps down. On
Scream For Me Brazil, the rhythm under the middle section is done as
i tabbed here; on the studio album however, there are keyboards
filling the harmony and also some guitars srumming the chords
when they change.


Gtr I - Roy Z (E A D G B E) - 'Untitled'
Gtr II - Adrian (B E A D F# B) - 'Untitled'
Gtr.III - (E A D G B E)
Gtr.IV - (B E A D F# B)
 4/4
 Intro (2x till coda)

                                            On this measure Roy plays
                                           the pull offs on the first time
                                           and then arppegios on the second.
                                           Listen to it and you'll get it
                                           right away.
