MANOWAR-Brothers of Metal The album version of this song is played in standard (E A D G B E) tuning. Most live versions are played in open D (D G C F A D) tuning. Note:This is my interpretation of this masterpiece. I have also taken the courtesy of providing the note lengths: W-Whole note H-Half note E-Eighth note S-Sixteenth note T-Thirty-second note a=Grace note Note with a dote is represented a another half of its value (e.g.) E.=Dotted Eight note or an Eighth note tied to a sixteenth note. A Note above no fret number represents a rest. Introduction: Pre-Verse: aaaW W W Q. S S E Q.
