Fast solos from
                     FEAR OF THE DARK - IRON MAIDEN

Check out 's Web Page with more transcriptions on it!
 
[Tabbers note] This is the solos from the album version, not the live version!
               The differences are small but noticeable.
               Also I did not tab the whole song since it is adequately
               transcribed already, with the exception of these solos.
 
Tuning: Normal (EADGBE)
