Crimson Ballroom Tab

   
I saw another tab for this song and I couldn't see how it could be helpful 'cause it
a very good one. Until this really nice guy came along called "Belford" that came up 
a
good tab for the song. I found it floating around on the net and no one had posted it on 
tab site yet. It's got solos, and pretty much the whole song tabbed part by part. No
goes to me though, it all should go to Belford@luuku.com now here is the tab in its entirety.

Intro: Am G F

You can play those chords in various positions, but I prefer these:

Am G F *1) Am G F
E|--(5)----------------------------- E|---0----3----(1)----|
B|---5----------8------------------- B|---1----3-----1-----|
G|---5----------7------10----------- G|---2----0-----2-----|
D|---7----------9------10----------- D|---2----0-----3-----|
A|---7---------10------8------------ A|---0----x-----3-----|
E|---5------------------------------ E|---x----3-----1-----|

*1) note that the rhythm guitar slides to G chord, 2 frets higher, after that F.
Use your ears! After that intro part comes this thing:

Solo by Nicke:

D|--------------------------------------------5h7---7-----5h7--------7-|
A|-----------------------------------------------------/7--------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------|

Verse: Pretty much the same thing as the intro riff. Nicke uses these too (watch the
from Hultsfred ’02: ).

Again, not completely sure, about the end of this solo - it's so friggin' fast. Maybe if
could slow that down a bit...
Live he does pretty much it like this (watch the version from Hultsfred '02, YouTube):

B|----17b--17-15--------------------------------|
G|------------------17-14-14-14-----------------|

Strings’ solo begins exactly when Nicke’s ends, so you gotta be fast if want to play both.

Strings's solo: only slight bend in the beginning
