    P.M.....|
e-|-------------|
B-|-------------|
G-|-------------|
D-|-4-4-4-4-4---|
A-|-2-2-2-2-2---|
E-|-------------|

And then it's time for the first verse with the verse riff:

 I don't know how to live trough this hell
 Woken up, I'm still locked in this shell
 Frozen soul, frozen down to the core
 Break the ice, I can't take anymore

Chorus:
                  P.M                   P.M.   P.M

--------------------------------------|
-4-5----------5-----6-7-----7-8-7-7---|
-2-3------0-0-3---0-4-5---0-5-6-5-5---|

   Freezing
   Can't move at all
   Screaming
   Can't hear my call
   I am dying to live
   Cry out
   I'm trapped under ice

Then it's time for another solo and another verse:

 Crystallized, as I lay here and rest
 Eyes of glass stare directly at death
 From deep sleep I have broken away
 No one knows, no one hears what I say

Then again, a chorus and then to this riff:

Riff 2:
                            P.M...........|

A-|-7---7---7------5---5---5------3---3---2---5-4-2---------|

 Scream from my soul
 Fate, mystified
 Hell, forever more

Then back to riff 3 again 4 times and then this:

-5-5-5---5-5-5---5-5-5---5-5-5---5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-

P.M.   P.M.
---------------------|
---------------------|
---------------------|
-----------3-2-------|
-5-3-2-0-------3-2---|
---------3-----------|

Then it starts all over again with a solo and a verse:

 No release from my cryonic state
 What is this? I've been stricken by fate
 Wrapped up tight, cannot move, can't break free
 Hand of doom has a tight grip on me

Verse 3 is followed by 2 choruses and after that, this,
played 3 times:

    P.M............|
e-|--------------------------------|
B-|--------------------------------|
G-|--------------------------------|
D-|--------------------------------|
A-|-----------------7---8-8--7-7---|
E-|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5---6-6--5-5---|

Then this:

e-|-------------------|
B-|-------------------|
G-|-------------------|
D-|-------------------|
A-|-8-8---5-5---7-7---|
E-|-6-6---3-3---5-5---|

And the verse riff again 4 times. On the last time
you end up with this:

    P.M.........|
e-|-----------------|
B-|-----------------|
G-|-----------------|
D-|-4-4-4-4-4-------|
A-|-2-2-2-2-2---4---|
E-|-------------2---|
