THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST - IRON MAIDEN

I like to play Number of the Beast like this.  It's a little difficult to get the gallop-like rhythm at first
but once you get it, it's much easier than any other version I've seen.  I'm too lazy to include the solos
too but you can just jam on them if you'd like.  At least that's what I think.
Have fun!

All the rest of the song is pretty easy except for the little bridge right before the solos.  It goes like this:
