Here's Giants from Helloween (The best band in the world!!)
This song is from the Chameleon album, if you don't know this song,
well go buy the album, it's worth it!!!!

                                                                (the solo
                                                                begins here)

(the rythm line is played 3 other times (the 3rd & 4th times, you must play
                                                       4
 third chords instead of fifth. So the D chords become 5, the C chords become
 2                         5
 3 and the E chord becomes 7 !!))

(Now we're at the first verse).

E5           D5         C5...................D5      --0-3-2-- (on the 6th
Strong and invincible,  they know ev'ry rules                      string)
Seems   inconceivable,  anything   they   do

(The pre-chorus)

They made us their slaves     We  weren't unified

(Now the chorus)

Someday        Someway      I may       see a wonderland
Dont' you      Won't you    Say that    will be free again
|-------------|-----------|-----------|--------------------|  I'm not sure
|-------------|-----------|-----------|--H-P---------------|  that the last
|-------------|-----------|-----------|-/\-/\--------------|  bar is played
|-------------|-----------|-9---9-10--|-9-10-9---2---------|  like that but
|-10---10-9---|-9---9-10--|-----------|----------2---------|  anyway I found
|----0--------|---0-------|---0-------|--------0-0---0-2-3-|  that it sounds
                                                              good.
(At this point, you must play the 1st rythm line 2 times,
 the first time with fifth chords and the second time with third chords.)

(Here's another verse, pre-chorus and chorus. They're played like the others)

Deprived of thier consiousness, we can't predict what's more
Can't you remember how things use to be before.

I secretly dream of thing we will be thought
Will someone esteem, for those who have fought

Someday, someway, I may see a wonderland
Don't you, won't you, say that will be free again

(Again play the first rythm line 2 times (1st time with 5th, 2nd time with 3rd))

(Now it's time for the bridge (if we can call it like this))

Play 4 bars of 16th Low E note then play this riff :
|-12----12--10----10|-8-----8---7-------|
|----12--------10---|----8---------8--7-|    5th chords & 2nd -> 3rd chords)

Can't you see it....aaaaaaahhh
Can't you feel it

(Now do 3 times the last 2 bars of the bridge...The 1st & 2nd time, do it
 without the keyboard part and the 3rd time, play both guitar and keyboard)

Can't you feel it....wooohooowoooo!

(The 1st gtr play an E5 chord at the end of the song while the 2nd gtr play
this part :)
  let ring________

 (*) Bend a whole note and sustain
 (**) Pick the note and then realease the previous bend.

 The last 3 (or 4) bars of the solo are too difficult to transcribe... but
 keep in mind that the solo is in E aeolien (E F# G A B C D).  I know that
 this solo ends with the lowest G (3rd fret of the 6th string).

 That's it folks!  Hope you enjoy this transcription.
