Easiest Iron Maiden song I ever played. Notes in the slow parts are same as 
those in faster. No improvisation, nothing. Just the fastest part, in the main 
guitar solo is somewhat harder to play. This should be very correct although 
it's my first attempt to tab it.

No Picture Bye! Average	#1 by Bye! at Apr 16, 1976 at 12:50 AM EST
	Truly brilliant song. One of Maiden's greatest in my opinion. No idea what it's about, though it seems to have something to do with being strong in the face of adversity.

No Picture TOm Wanna Be	#2 by TOm HIrsch at Apr 10, 2007 at 7:42 AM EST
	"Como Estais Amigos" is portuguese, and it means "How Are You Friends". About the meaning of the song I don't know, but the traslation of the title is this one.
