Second Tab. My Tabbing isn't 100% accurate, you'll see that the soloing isn't exactly 
he plays.
Used a youtube vid as help. It's only possible to be played in
C#-tuning. So: 654321 C# F# B E G# c#
I think it can be seen as the most odd song on the 'Above Heaven/Beyond
Hell' album, because of the 'death metal' grunts in it. I said odd but I still like it though.

Verse 1: Play verse riff like in the intro

Get off my shoulder I told you to stay away your still a big part of me
Dance with delusional angels of sin
Kill false demons your might kill false angels too
That's no what we wanna do
Together as one we do as were told living together and fighting as one

Play the Main Riffx2

Verse 2: Like Verse 1

Rejecting what's "good" with so called evil included
The dominant mind will prove you all blind
Finding the balance to leave you behind
I've learned so far controlling all the dark
Evelyn visions in the sky all on my shoulder all in my mind

Chorus:

In the chorus there is the Ryhthm part (Powerchords above Text) and a
guitar solo which follows the tone of the vocals.

Verse 3: like verse 1

Stay away you still a big part of me
Dance with delusional angels of sin
Kill false demons you might kill false angels too
That's not what we wanna do
Evelyn visions in the sky all on my shoulder all in my mind


Chorus


Bridge: Just play the same chord. Try to play it downstroke-upstroke and not down-down. 
guess it just makes it cooler ^^.

C#C#  x4

C#C#
   Don't listen to all this bollocks
C#C#
   There's nothing on either shoulder
C#C#                        C#C#
   Spreading the fire fever into something more that needs ya
C#C#
   Maybe you fall forever and maybe we die together

C#x...(I can't count that can I...?)
