Edge of Darkness
(Tune down 2.5 steps to B)

Intro: (2 gtrs... one does the A5 which rings out; later in the song the 2nd
guitar basically follows the roots of the chords - it's really easy to pick
up.)

Repeat the intro bit again, except there's a rhythm fill during the third
measure of the second riff: the vibratoed Ab [(5) 6 fr.] is replaced by this:
