Tabbed by: Dragozan

Tuning: Standard


This is my first tab that i figured out for myself.
The Solo uses a similar note cluster to the lead intro,
so you can have a shot at figuring out the intro from this too.
It's fairly easy.

Enjoy, and feel free to comment or correct anything

This riff is using the key of A# major I Think

E|--------------------------------------------------------------------
B|------------3-4~--4-3-4-3h4p3p1-------------------------------------
G|--3----3-5----------------------3--------3/5-3----------------------
D|-----3---------------------------------3----------------------------
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------

This second lick uses A# Major too, but at an octave higher.
Octaves aside, its exactly the same notes as the first riff,
except for the ending, which stoops into higher notes of the A# Major 
scale

E|-----------------10-11~--11-10-11-10h11p10p8------------13/15--13---
B|--/11-----11-13-------------------------------11----11--------------
G|-------10-----------------------------------------------------------
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------

And the whole solo ends on this riff, still in A# Major

E|---11-10-11-10h11p10------------------------------------------------
B|---------------------11---------------------------------------------
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------

I've tried to put in as much theory as i can into the descriptions,
to give you an idea of how i figured this one out.

It's a great solo, and so easy to play, for something as epic-sounding

Thanks :)


Update: Here's a version of the tab in half-step-down tuning 
(Eb,Ab,Db,Gb,Bb,Eb).
 Avantasia normally play in flatted tuning like tihs, so this may be of
 use to you:

E|--------------------------------------------------------------------
B|------------4-5~--5-4-5-4h5p4p2-------------------------------------
G|--4----4-6----------------------4--------4/6-4----------------------
D|-----4---------------------------------4----------------------------
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------

E|-----------------11-12~--12-11-12-11h12p11p9------------14/16--14---
B|--/12-----12-14-------------------------------12----12--------------
G|-------11-----------------------------------------------------------
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------

E|---12-11-12-11h12p11------------------------------------------------
B|---------------------12---------------------------------------------
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------

Hope this update's of any use :)
