The Trooper Chords & Tabs

Iron Maiden Chords & Tabs

Version: 7 Type: Bass Tab

The Trooper Bass Tab

   
Song: The Trooper
Album: Piece of Mind
Artist: Iron Maiden
Bassist: Steve Harris
Tuning: Standard (E A D G)

Notes:
- Make sure you choke the note after you do the triplet (gallop), otherwise, it 
doesn't really make much sense.
- Tablature timing is not perfect, so you'll have to work out the timing yourself 
(please consider that this is my first tab)
