This Riff occurs throughout the chorus part, it has a few slight variations, but If this 
is played it will sound fine. The Low C on the 1st fret of the B-stg. Can be substituted 
an octave higher. These Riffs make up most of the song.

Bride Riff: You swing your rattle down (Crossfire from the marionettes.)
Let all the Low E's ring throughout the riff. The 19's and 20's mean 19th and 20th fret 
on the E-stg. Not 1-9. E-Mail me if there are questions.

	Beans, have you ever actually read Shadow Over Innsmouth? Because only a minute few of the lines in this song could ever be tentatively related to it. In any case, I agree with sting. Pretty good song, though not one of my favourites.

No Picture Ayush Average	#2 by Ayush K at Jan 7, 1988 at 7:58 AM EST
	You swing your rattle down Call to arms, the trumpets sound Toy horses start the charge Robots chessmen standing guard Hand puppets storm the beach Fire trucks trapped out of reach Hand puppets storm the beach Fire trucks trapped out of reach All clowns reinforce the rear Slingshots fire into the air All clowns reinforce the rear Slingshots fire into the air Stuffed bears hold the hill till death Crossfire from marionettes Stuffed bears hold the hill till death Crossfire from the marionettes We shall never surrender! I have a slightly different view of this song. To me, it's about war. In the same vein as "Disposable Heroes". The "toy soldiers off to war" line makes me think that way. But then, maybe i'm taking the song too literally.

	James sounds awesome on this track. Also its about a wildlife park and hookers
