      Shamelessly take from Guitar World Magazine February 1991.

      Well, I finally finished it!  This is an incredible song with
one of the best solo's ever written by Ritchie Blackmore.  I have
tried to include as much of the original information as I could
while keeping to the ASCI text format.  I tried to match up the
lyrics with the notes thus keeping the timing correct.  As always,
listen to the recording to get the timing.  
      I would like to have the following tabs:  "Echoes" by Pink
Floyd (the first half of the song), "Astronomy Domine" by Pink
Floyd (preferably the version on Ummagumma), and the rythem's to
Blue Oyster Cult songs.
