@SONG: Charon
======
(music: Michael Denner & King Diamond; lyrics: King Diamond)
Welcome My Friend, My Name Is Charon
Please Take My Hand, I Know The Secret Land
Don't Be Afraid...Oh No
I'm Faceless But Don't Fear Now
I'll Take You Safe Across The River Styx
Waste No Time, Soon The Night Will Break Away
That Boy Can Wait, There's Only Room For One
Don't Be Afraid...Oh No
I'm Faceless But Don't Fear Now
I'll Take You Safe Across The River Styx
Solo: Andy
I Am Your Death
We Must Leave Now, My Boat Is Waiting
On The Other Shore Is The Land Of The Dead
Don't Be Afraid...Oh No
I'm Faceless But Don't Fear Now
I'll Take You Safe Across The River Styx
Solo: Mike

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP, representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are "hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the official KING DIAMOND tablature which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route. These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the NY Times Article. We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
