Therion "Crazy Nights"

Crowning of Atlantis

tabbed by: Drew Schinzel <analogkid82@yahoo.com> 8/11/99

p pull off

notes: Here's the kick-ass cover off of the new Therion MCD. They play the

song in C# tuning, but this is in standard, just because they don't use any

chords or notes lower than the standard E5 so it makes no difference what

tuning you play it in really. This one's a lot of fun.

This is the chorus riff, the timings tabbed here are for the first time through,

just listen to see how it should sound. When they repeat the chorus later on,

they use the timing of the second bar during the first bar also. Mess around with

it a little, I don't even think Johnsson himself tried to keep a consistent chorus

rhythm throughout the song, and it really doesn't matter. :)
