I have taken the song without permission from the songbook for Empire. I am doing this from memory and I don't remember the lyrics or the lead. Hope this is useful to someone. I also didn't try to annotate the rhythm. You'll have to listen to the song for that. clean: e-----3----------------3----------------3-------------------3------------------|

Mike (MB2@VAXA.CLARION.EDU) From: Canteen Boy Here is the lead for the song Anybody Listening? by Queensryche.
