Riff 3

I don't know how many times each tone is hit, but its easy if you just listen to the song. They are tremolopicked (but pretty slowly)

e|-----------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------------------|
G|-----------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------5-...........-------------6-...........-|
A|-6...........-------------7-...........--------------|
E|-----------------------------------------------------|

At end these two tones tremolpicked

B|-----------------------|
G|-----------------------|
D|---6......5.......-----|
A|-----------------------|
E|-----------------------|

Riff 4

This is not exact put its pretty close, I think.

ALL TONES ARE TREMOLOPICKED(except the powerchords at the end). I will write just as normal tones, but remember the tremolopicking!

e|------------------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------7-10-7---|
A|-6-3-6-3-----5-3-5-3---------6-3-6-3-----5-3-5-8--5-8-|
E|---------3-6---------6-3-------------3-6------------6-|

Thats all riffs!

There is also a solo which is played over the verse riff ( I can't figure the solo out, sorry!)

If you wanna improvise a solo, you can play the solo in D

HOW THE SONG IS PLAYED:

-Intro-

-Singed over verse riff-

Blackened earth before me

Creeping fog in my way

Lurking through the shadows

Of another day

My hearts the darkened one

My soul on ice

Into the world before me

I stalk the night

-Intro Riff again-

-singed over verse riff-

Blind me moons above me

But still I shall se

In my time of wondering

WInter it will be

I'm getting nearer

The higher moutains wait

It's getting colder

The snow blow in my face

-The Intro riff yet again-

-singed over riff 2-

In our great winters land

Theres seldom sun in sight

In great winters land

Hear clear vocies of ice

-Riff 3 is played between-

-singed over riff 2-

Through the biting wind

At the cold northern mountains

Horizoned in wintery dreams

At the cold northern mountains

-Riff 3 is played between-

-singed over riff 2-

Cover the horizon

But still I shall reach

The unending darkness that embraces me

-Riff 4 is played-

-The first verse is singed again over the verse riff-

Then a there is a solo played over the verse riff, this solo can be played in D.

The song fades out with the solo
