Hail To The King Solo Tab

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                             Hail To The King - Avenged Sevenfold
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Living Bodies
Tuning: Drop D (DADGBe)
 
From the single 'Hail To The King' released on the 15/07/13
The timing for this is pretty easy to work out by ear and would take ages to do
it, I'd probably mess up somewhere. I'm pretty confident that this is right, but
if anyone notices a mistake let me know so it can be amended.
 
Update (24/07/2013)- to stop confusion, i know that the original song is played
in drop C#, Imade this tab as drop D is much easier to tune into than drop C#
and the tab sounds exactly the same, and in my opinion is easier to play than
the original indrop C#.
 
Update- (24/07/2013)-added timings, set metronome to 120 bpm.
 
timings legend-
any number- (whatever number) whole beats
W- whole beat
H- half beat
Q- quarter beat
E- eighth beat
S- sixteenth beat
T- thirty secondth beat
 
As im not 100% sure on the timings, if something doesnt sound right to you guys,
let me know and i'll look into it :)
