Main riff

Ending similar to the end of the impro.




I didn't tab all the solo section since it is heavily improvised.
I also didn't tab the beginning quiet part, which is, by the way, the same thing played 
in "Into the Gyre" from TDDU [I wonder if anybody else has noticed that the songs are 
called "Starhammer (feat.The Electric Psalmon) and "Into the Gyre (feat. The Acoustic 
Psalmon)" because they contain the same guitar part!]
I'll write a bass tab too and post a GP5 file with drums guitars bass and Mellotron as 
soon as my PC recovers.
In the pre verse riff there are actually 2 guitars that play similar things, I just 
tabbed the parts Snah plays live(he modifies some parts anyway, listen to live recording to understand 
which ones). Last time I saw them they played the song with standard tuning

I hope you'll enjoy this tab of this great song, I'll write the tabs for the other songs from HMF too
(except "Close your eyes") and maybe something from Child of the Future and the last 3 albums.
