Have fun playing this incredible song. The live version on One Cold Winter's Night is a
different, but it isn't hard to figure out if you know the studio version. I hope my
for the verses isn't too confusing, but it was a bit difficult to tab, because you 
have to listen to the lyrics to get the timing right. Anyway, enjoy, and don't forget to
Kamelot live in their Ghost Opera 2007 tour!
