Lord of the Rings (by Blind Guardian) --------------------------------------------------- I've worked out the chords used in 'Lord of the Rings' on 'The forgotten tales' by Blind Guardian. All mistakes are mine. For comments or corrections, please mail to: tfeser@iphcip1.physik.uni-mainz.de --------------------------------------------------- The used chords are standard, perhaps except H7 hm E 2 2 H 0 3 G 2 4 D 1 4 A 2 2 E X X I use the following picking, which is not original. Modify it as you like.
