'The nomad' by Iron maiden
Album - Brave new world
Transcribed by Adam Scott 21st August 2003
This tab is my own version of 'The nomad'.
I got inspired by a tab which
appeared on various websites.
The slow solo is copied and
corrected from the transcription I saw.
None of the solos here as i can't tab them.HA!

This riff Comes to a standstill
the second time around. The riff above
becomes-

B -----------------------------
G -----------------------------
D -------9/10\9----------------
A -------7/8 \7-stop-----------
E 0-0-0-0----------------------
The riff below is played over Riff A
It goes something like this
fill A

E ----------------------------- x8
I would say that this is a
simplified version of the riff
but i read a tab which transcribes
this as the riff below.

G --4---4---5---4---2---4------4---4---5---4---2-
D -----------------------------------------------

E -----------------------------------------------
I am not sure which is right because
the riff above is hard to play fast.
You should try both and find out
which you think is right.

This riff backs the greatest slow solo ever !
Also the riff above turns into chords as
the backing guitar goes distorted.
And here it is....

Fill C kicks when riff F repeats.
The Fill C is played once and then
the axeman goes back to the Fill B.
It is quite hard to explain but
listen to the song to see the slight variation.

Riff repeats
And that is it. It's a bit complicated to
look at but it comes together if you listen to the song.
Just go back to playing the verse chords,
then the chorus,and Riff A with
Riff E played over the top.
It ends with an E5 (below) and a cut down riff E (bottom).

Just figure out the song structure for yourself.
Other tabs coming soon

Have fun!! |
