This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Song

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

"The Millennium King" by Old Man's Child

from the album "The Pagan Prosperity"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tab by Mikolaj Lewandowski (black_ml@friko7.onet.pl)

Based on tab by Esa Mikkola (Finland) esamikkola@hotmail.com

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

corrected by: Nick Beato (entity@cfl.rr.com)

the original tablature was in the wrong tuning.

the notes were all accurate, so nothing is corrected there

i just moved everything to the correct positions

and added a some missing harmonies and melodies

i'm confident that this tuning is correct because almost ever other

old man's child song is in Em, Am and Dm and in standard tuning.

so here is a correct version...
