                    Hallowed Be Thy Name
 
                 by Iron Maiden(Steve Harris)
 
       Transcribed by Eddie Breslin(caladan@maths.tcd.ie)
 INTRO:
 This is the guitar part at the start. It is picked with the
 thumb and ring finger. The high notes are all fingered with
 the little finger of the left hand. I've shown which finger
 to use for the low notes.

 LEAD UNDER "Running Low" etc.
 These first two bars are repeated over and over on the album
 version. I've gone on to show roughly how it's played live
 The first trill allows Dave to get the pick out of his teeth!

 RHYTHM 1:
 This is doubled by the bass. It is the rhythm that is used for
 the verses later on in the song aswell.

 RIFF B:
 This is the riff between 'Running Low' and 'When the priest..'
 As I suspected I was playing this wrong-sheer laziness!
 This should be a lot closer to the proper way. The hammers
 and pulls may or may not be the actual way its played but if
 you want to play it as fast as its played live it's 
 definitely the easiest way. Just listen carefully for the timing.
 
 Bass plays Rhythm 1.
