Guitar tablature for FATES WARNING's - Damnation
From the album 'Night On Brocken' (1984)
Transcribed by Vassilis Bekiaris (el94101@zeus.central.ntua.gr)

This is one of the easiest songs by Fates ,yet can trick the ear sometimes.
So this is the best i could. I've not transcribed the solo part and have not
notated any bends,hammers or whatever..but what do you expect?i only play piano.
Any notes enclosed by parentheses are what i am not at all sure about...
Have fun with the song and keep transcribing.
At the end there's one small correction to Down To The Wire 's transcription
by Jesse Rink..
