"Quiet" bit with "Take a Look..."
I'll try and show the basic idea. Finger the open Am and try to
follow the melody by lifting your finger on 2nd string. Then pick
the Fmaj7 chord anyway you want.

Main Verse Riff:
Similar idea to the previous part except you follow the melody
on the 3rd string. When muting the strings and strumming between
the parts shown lift your 3rd or 4th finger off the 3rd string,
i.e. don't hold the melody notes down,just keep the A power chord
fingered. Play the extended notes with upstrokes to emphasise the
melody.

SOLO'S:
Transcribing solo's is not my strong point but you should the

Some of fast licks, especially Dave's are more approximations
than anything else.

Lyrics:

The convoy lights are dead ahead
The Merchantmen lay in their bed,
The thump of diesels hammers down,
In the oily sea-the killing ground,
His knuckles white his eyes alight,
He slams the hatch on the deadly night,
A cunning fox in the chickens lair,
A hound of hell and the devil don't care

Running silent, Running deep, we are you final prayer,
Warriors in secret sleep, a merchantman's nightmare,
A silent death lies waiting, for all of you below,
Running silent, Running deep, sink into your final sleep

Chill the hearts of fighting men,
In open ocean wondering when?
The lethal silver fish will fly
The boat will shiver-men will die
A cast of millions-a part to play
Killer? Victim? Or fool for a day
Obeying an order-men have to die
Us or them-a well rehearsed lie

The lifeboats shattered the hull is torn,
The tar black smell of burning oil,
On the way down to Davy Jones,
Every man for himself-you're on your own
The wolf eyes watch the crosswire
"Stern tubes ready", "Aim and fire!"
They can pin some medal on your chest,
But in two more weeks-dead like the rest

Unchain the colours before my eyes,
Yesterday's sorrows, tomorrow's white lies.
Scan the horizon, the clouds take me higher,
I shall return from out of fire.

Tears for rememberance, and tears for joy,
Tears for somebody and this lonely boy.
Out in the madness, the all seeing eye,
Flickers above us, to light up the sky

Unchain the colours before my eyes,
Yesterday's sorrows, tomorrow's white lies.
Scan the horizon, the clouds take me higher,
I shall return from out of fire.

Phantom Of The Opera

Phantom of the Opera
Steve Harris
I've been looking so long for you now you won't get away from my grasp.
You've been living so long in hiding in hiding behind that false mask.
And you know and I know that you ain't got long now to last.
Your looks and your feelings are just the remains of your past.
You're standing in the wings, there you wait for the curtain to fall.
Knowing the terror and holding you have on us all.
Yeah, I know that you're gonna scratch me, maim me and maul.
You know I'm helpless from your mesmerising cat call.
Keep your distance, walk away, don't take his bait.
Don't you stray, don't fade away.
Watch your step, he's out to get you, come what may.
Don't you stray, from the narrow way.
I'm running and hiding in my dreams you're always there.
You're the Phantom of the Opera, you're the devil, you're just out to scare.
You damaged my mind and my soul it just floats through the air.
Haunt me, you taunt me, you torture me back at your lair.

[repeat intro]
saw in my own dreams were the re-
flections of my warped mind staring
back at me.
'Cos in my dreams it's always there. The evil
face that twists my mind and brings me
to despair.

[verse]
D!
Night was black was no use holding back 'Cos I just
C! D!
had to see was some-one watching me
D!
In the mist dark figures move and twist was all
C! D!
this for real or just some kind of hell

[chorus]
C! G! C! D!
Six six six the num-ber of the beast
Hell and fire was born to be released

[play verse]
Torches blazed and secret chants were phrased as they
start to cry hands held to the sky
In the night the fires are burning bright the ritual
has begun satan's work is done

C! G! C! D!
Six six six the num-ber of the beast
Sac- ri- fice is going on tonight

(This) can't go on I must inform the law can this
still be real or just some crazy dream
but I feel drawn towards the chanting hordes seems to
mesmerize can't avoid their eyes

I'm coming back I will return
And I'll posess your body and I'll make you burn
I have the fire I have the force
I have the power to make my evil take it's course
