A Past and Future Secret Blind Guardian
This is "A Past and Future Secret" by Blind Guardian
I took this from a performance at VIVA Metalla but it's pretty
much like the album version.
I think that he tune's 1/2 step down but I'm not sure.
Always rythm guitar on top and lead guitar on bottom.
Note: Capoeded at 3rd fret
I'll just put all riffs first and then explain the music.

This part I'll just put the chords. The lead part althought I knew
part of it I prefer to improvise in the Gm scale. Just listen to
the record to get the rythm.

[a]Now you all [G]know the [E]bards and their [a]songs
when [a]hours have gone [G]by
[E]I close my [a]eyes

[E]about the dawn of the [G]night
let's [a]sing [G]the [a]bard [G]song[a] [G] [a] [G]
Tom[G]orr[a]ow will [D]take us [a]away

G a D a | will join together !!!
tomorrow will take it away
the [D]fear of [a]today
[D]it will be [F]gone
due [D]to our [G]magic [E]songs
solo
There's [a]only one [G]song
[E]left in my [a]mind
tales of a [G]brave man
who [E]lived far from [a]here
now the bard songs are [G]over
and [E]it's time to [a]leave
noone should [G]ask you
