Edge Of Darkness


Edge of Darkness
(Tune down 2.5 steps to B)

The usual disclaimer... I'm pretty sure most of this is right. The strange riff may not be 100% right, but
it's close. The ~~ symbols indicate an excessively wide vibrato. I am once again indebted to John of
Liverpool for his help with this!

Intro: (2 gtrs... one does the A5 which rings out; later in the song the 2nd guitar basically follows the
roots of the chords - it's really easy to pick up.)

Play some weird harmonics for the radio session version...

Repeat the intro bit again, except there's a rhythm fill during the third measure of the second riff: the
vibratoed Ab [(5) 6 fr.] is replaced by this:

Then the chorus (see later), and the verse:

Chorus:  (other gtr. harmonise in 3rds last couple of times, in A dorian)
