Wishbone Ash The King Will Come Lyrics

the timing for the chords (especially the intro) is hard but if you listen to the record
you can work it out. If you would like a chord sheet then get in touch. This is Live in
Concert Disc 2 version so it differs from the Argus version. If you do capo on fret 1 then
you can play it (and do all the lead parts one fret higher) or you could tune the guitar up one!!
This is my first tab and I couldn't find any tabs for this song so i decided I would do my own!!!!
Any comments welcomed!!!!
Intro chords
Riff 1
Riff 2
Riff 3
Em/Gmajor ascending pentatonic for use in solo
chords....
INTRO and MAIN RIFF
In the fire, the king will come.
Thunder rolls, piper and drum.
Evil sons, overrun,
Count their sins - judgment comes.
MAIN RIFF
The checkerboard of nights and days -
Man will die, man be saved.
The sky will fall, the earth will pray,
When judgment comes to claim its day.
RIFF 2
See the word of the prophet
On a stone in his hand.
Poison pen revelation,
Or just a sign in the sand?
RIFF 3
SOLO (which can be done around the pentatonic scale of Em/Gmajor with a Wah-Wah pedal)
Haven't quite worked this bit out, it's a little bit tricky, i just play riff 1 twice
and then go to the verse....
RIFF 1
In the fire, the king will come.
Thunder rolls, piper and drum.
Evil sons, overrun,
Count their sins - judgment comes.
RIFF 2
See the word of the prophet
On a stone in his hand.
Poison pen revelation,
Or just a sign in the sand?
RIFF 1 then end on:
