Variations
==========
As with most Fates songs, they play with intervals and overdubbing/multiple
guitars to achieve some fairly subtle, but great sound textures.
As a result, it's easy to come up with all sorts of ideas for what
they're actually doing. For example, try these variations ...
In Fig 6, instead of ------------ try ------------
------------ ------------
-000333--222 -000333--20-
-00033333222 -00033333202
-------33--- -------33--2
------------ ------------
and for the main part of Fig 6 try ...
(I think this one's really cool)

I certainly hope you get the same kick out of this awesome song that I do.
It is a classic in my opinion. One of my all time favourites.
Also, I'm sorry the tab is so hard to read - give me the pencil and
paper originals any day!! Any suggestions welcome of course, but please
keep me informed.
