Blood Brothers by Iron Maiden guitar tab (text):Artist: Iron Maiden (written by Steve Harris) Title: Blood Brothers Album/Source: Brave New World Tab Author: Colonel Psycho (psycho@TarantulaDev.com) IRON MAIDEN -- BLOOD BROTHERS ----------------------------- This happens to be the first tab I've written and posted, which may explain why I have made an effort to lay out the tab neatly, :) The first scales I learnt were G major and G pent. so I was playing around in these scales and accidently played the lead melody riff. Since I reckon Iron Maiden are great, and Brave New World is, like, one of the best metal/rock albums of all time, I HAD to try and play the whole thing. Eventually, I got everything except the first solo (it's way too fast for my ears to catch, never mind play!). But, you'll be pleased to know the awesome second solo (near the end of the track) isn't as hard to play as it sounds, you just have to get the string-bends and timing right. Note: this tab does not ACCURATELY portray timing. Listen to the song, as the tab notes are layed out to ROUGHLY portray timing! This song is in the key of G-major, and frequently uses the scales Gmaj 4 and Gmaj 5. Below are these two scale positions. Learn them well if you don't know them already, in both directions! G-major scale: position 4 e |----------------------------------------10-12---------| b |-------------------------------10-12-13---------------| g |-----------------------9-11-12------------------------| D |---------------9-10-12--------------------------------| A |-------9-10-12----------------------------------------| E |-10-12------------------------------------------------| G-major scale: position 5 e |-------------------------------------------12-14-15---| b |----------------------------------12-13-15------------| g |-------------------------11-12-14---------------------| D |-------------------12-14------------------------------| A |----------12-14-15------------------------------------| E |-12-14-15---------------------------------------------| BACKGROUND INFO --------------- It is designed for 3 guitars. "Guitar A" refers to an acoustic, "Guitar B" refers to the first electric (always with strong distortion), and finally "Guitar C" refers to the second electric (typically clean using rear pickup, occasional light distortion). The song contains 12 riffs. Here's a short description of each, in order of appearance: RIFF A -- Intro: Guitar A RIFF B -- Intro lead and misc melody: Guitar C RIFF C -- Same as Riff A, but slightly different rhythm! RIFF D -- Verse rhythm: Guitar B, also bkgnd orch strings RIFF E -- Chorus: Guitar A and B RIFF F -- Break: Guitar A and B RIFF G -- Pre-solo interlude (mutation of Riff B): Guitar C RIFF H -- First solo (NOT TABBED!) -- Guitar C RIFF I -- Post-solo interlude: Guitar C RIFF J -- 2nd verse rhythm: Guitar A RIFF K -- 2nd verse lead (over Riff J): Guitar C RIFF L -- Second solo riff: Guitar C SONG TABS --------- [ KEY ] - h = hammer-on (do note without picking string) - ^ = string bend - ~ = tremolo (fingered or with wh. bar; your choice) - / = slide (up or down) - etc = placeholder for rhythm pattern in chord RIFF A [ This sounds odd at first, like the guitar should be playing the end bit lower (ie tuning it all down). But believe me, the bass goes lower not the guitar. ] . .

Get the rhythm right by listening to the song.

RIFF I e |---------------------------------------------| b |-----12---10---12---------13---12------10----| g |-9----------------------------------------12-| D |---------------------------------------------| A |---------------------------------------------| E |---------------------------------------------| repeat a whole bunch of times, then slide the first note -- the 9th fret on g -- down to second fret at the end (you'll hear it when you listen to the song) RIFF J . .

This is very difficult and takes practise; in my opinion it is harder than the second solo riff. Each "|---" to "---|" is three eighth beats, but the tab is only rough; it's just to give some idea of the timing. e |------------------|--------------|-10---------| b |---------------10-|-12---10---12-|------12-10-| g |-9-11-12-11-12----|--------------|------------| . . ^^^^ FAST BIT! e |-------------|--------------|-----------| b |-12----------|-10----h12~~~~|~~-10---12-| g |------10-----|--------------|-----------| D |---------12--|--------------|-----------| . . e |-10----------|-------------|-----------| b |-------12-10-|-12----10----|-10~~~~~~~~| g |-------------|----------12-|-----------| . . e |------------|----------------|--------------| b |~~~-----10--|-12/13---12--10-|-12----10-----| g |----12------|----------------|-----------12-| . . e |------|------------|------------|------------|---------| b |------|------------|------------|------------|---------| g |-9~~~~|~~~~-9---11-|-12----11-9-|-11----9----|-9-------| D |------|------------|------------|---------12-|-----9~~~| A |------|------------|------------|------------|---------| E |------|------------|------------|------------|---------| e |----------|-----------|-----------|-------|---------| b |----------|-----------|-----------|-------|---------| g |--------9-|-12---11-9-|-11---9----|-9-----|----9-11-| D |~~~-12----|-----------|--------12-|-------|---------| A |----------|-----------|-----------|-------|---------| E |----------|-----------|-----------|-------|---------| e |-----------|-----------|-------|--------| b |-----------|-----------|-------|--------| g |-12---11-9-|------9-11-|-9~~~~~|~~~~~~--| D |-----------|-12--------|-------|--------| A |-----------|-----------|-------|--------| E |-----------|-----------|-------|--------| RIFF L The second solo-riff, near the end. Light distortion, but plenty of gain will get that 'naturally semi-harmonic' sound you want for this.

And if you're taking a walk through the garden of life What do think you'd expect you would see? Just like a mirror refleting the moves of your life And in the river reflections of me Just for a second a glimpse of my father I see And in a movement he beckons to me And in a moment the memories are all that remain And all the wounds are re-opening again WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS, WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS, WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS And as you look all around at the world in dismay What do you see? Do you think we have learned? Not if you're taking a look at the war torn affray Out in the street where our babies are buried WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS, WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS, WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS There are times when I feel I'm afraid for the world There are times I'm ashamed of us all When you're floating all over the emotion you feel And reflecting the good and the bad Will we ever know what the answer to life really is? Can you really tell me what love is? Maybe all the things that you know that are precious to you Can be slipped away by fate's soft hand WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS, WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS, WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS When you think that we've used all our chances And the chance to make everything right Keep on making the same old mistakes Make some tipping the balance of reason When we're living our lives on the edge Say a prayer on the book of the dead... WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS, WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS, WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS, WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS, WE'RE BLOOD BROTHERS And if you're taking a walk though the garden of... life... |
