RAINMAKER - Iron Maiden
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Ignacio "Coco" Vespoli

Well, before start tabbing, let me tell you something, as you know, Iron Maiden has
got 3 guitars, but the version that im gonna tab is for two guitars. Let me explain
you, in the verses, bridges, whatever, each guitar play different chords, what im
gonna do is to create a chord that sounds exactly like the 3 guitars at the same time;
difficult? no, its very simple.
Well, with this tab you can play the song with only one guitar, but but there are parts
like the solo or the intro where you need 2 guitars, so here we go.
Im sure this tab is going to be in the fresh tabs :P
