The Number of the Beast (intro)
by Iron Maiden 

Tab author:Rich Robinson

I decided to post this, because so many on here are so close,
but they're all missing one note...the phrasing climb is three
notes, and everyone else only shows 2.. I also included the
final D5 outro for the end of the song, Enjoy!
