Kamelot - Until Kingdom Come

Source: 'The Fourth Legacy' & 'The Expedition' - [CD]
Music and Lyrics by: Youngblood/Khan
Tuning: Standard 'E' tuning
Main Time Signature: 4/4
Key Signature: G
Tone/Effects: Distortion, reverb
Tab Accuracy: On the live album, the guitar is tuned down 1/2 step but
it is still fretted as shown here. There is no timing in the tab, you
will have to listen to the song to get the timing of the notes. The
format is a little awkward, but I wanted to get something on the site.
I will improve on it and resubmit. Any comments?

(palm mute single notes)

of the Eb5 chord)

Then repeat ONLY the first half of [Riff 1]

G5
In this dream she will show me the door
To a new revelation

G5
And I know that I've seen her before
C5                                      Bb5
  That she'll bring me salvation

[Chorus]: (be sure to palm mute single notes here as in [Riff 1])

G5                               F5     Eb5
   Like the sun shining down on me
C5                         Eb5  [Fill 1] *(shown above)
   Like the breeze on the ocean
G5                                 F5  Eb5
   You're the path of my destiny
C5                                      Bb5    A5
   I know you will follow me until kingdom come

First half of [Riff 1] again


"When I watch from the tower at night..."
