i just tabbed the main part of the bridge, you can probably figure out
some of the variations off of that. the rest, during the singing is just
made up of the previous chords and should be easy enough to figure out.
up the irons...
check out my other maiden tabs:
charlotte the harlot
phantom of the opera (full)
wrathchild (second version on this site)
prowler
sanctuary
and more to come...
