Subject: TAB: Little Big Horn by Running Wild
=09=09=09 Little Big Horn
=09=09=09 by Running Wild
=09=09=09 Taken from the album
=09=09=09 Blazon Stone
=09=09 Transcribed by Mikko Issakainen
=09=09=09 miissaka@jyu.fi
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

Hey Mr. Custer, why d'you dare the hand of fate
The claw of death waits to grab
A golden medal, your honor idolized
Your heart is stone, yout blood is iced

(Verse riff 4 times)
The soldiers're riding unprepared for the attack
A touch of death, the shotguns crack
The blood is flowing, the desert sand turns red
Why did you lead them to this trap?
(Bridge & Chorus)
(Fade in the 10th fret from 1st string and let it ring until the solo)

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

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 RUNNING WILD 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.
