  Verse
  
  
          The verse has the same chords that the part above, but they're
  played with distortion. Hear very carefully the song so you can catch
  the rhythm.
  
  Here are the lyrics:
  
  Have you run your fingers down the wall
  And have you felt your neck skin crawl
  When you're searching for the light
  Sometimes when you're scared to take a look
  At the corner of the room
  You've sensed that something's watching you
  
  
  Solo:
  
  (The easy part)

  {Solo-Really-Fast-Difficult-To-Catch}
  
  Solo:
  
  (Again, an easy part)
  
  E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
  B|-------10-6-8~-------10-6-8-6----------------------------------------------
  G|-7-7-7---------7-7-7----------------10-7-9~-------10-7-9-5--------7-3-5----

  D|-7-7-7--------10-7--7--7-----7-----7-----7---------------------------------

          Then, comes the Chorus again, the last verse, and the outro,
  that is similar to the Intro, so you can get it easy.
  
  
          If you have an idea about the Really-Fast-Solo, or if you
  want to talk about another Iron Maiden's Tab, feel free to drop me
  some lines about it.
