=09=09=09     Little Big Horn
=09=09=09     by Running Wild

=09=09=09  Taken from the album

   Here's another fine song from Running Wild. It is quite easy to play
  but it was difficult to transcribe... so e-mail me if you find mistakes.
  The timing seems to be correct most of the time but I had some problems
  with the rythm guitar in the solo so listen to the record if you have it.
  There might more hammer-on's, pull-off's and slides so add them if you
  like. E-mail me your opinion about it!!

  NOTES:
  - Tempo is about 200, and it's played in 4/4 time;
  - Tune guitars 1/2 steps down
----------------------
H =3D Hammer on, P =3D Pull off, S =3D Slide, Ah =3D Artificial harmonic

Your heart is stone, yout blood is iced

 Solo: (It appears to be close enough but it's the first solo that I've
=09transcribed... Theere is NO timing written here in the solo!! So
=09don't wonder why the first part of the solo lasts only 8 measures
=09while the Solo fig.1 during it lasts 16... ;)
