Artist: Iron Maiden
Song: Aces High (Chords)
Tabbed by Naaronson
--------------------
Listen to the song for timings, and work out your own strum pattern
depending on what style you're playing this. Fairly simple chords, but in 
places this will be quite hard to follow due to the fact there are a lot of 
instrumental bits in the song, just play along and try to see what's happening.
* The little C C/B figure doesn't really appear in the song, it's a lead 
guitar run down an E minor scale on the track, but I like to play it when 
playing this acoustically as it sounds pretty good. If you want to skip it just 
keep playing Em for this bit.
[Intro]
F#m   D  E
            (x4)
(hold the E on the last repeat)
Am  F G
        (x4)
[Verse 1]
Em                                     D
There goes the siren that warns of the air raid,
Em                                       D
Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak.
Em                                     D
Out for the scramble, we've got to get airborne,
Em                             D
Got to get up for the coming attack.
Am                                   G
Jump in the cockpit and start up the engines,
  Am                                           G
Remove all the wheelblocks, there's no time to waste.
Am                                  G
Gathering speed as we head down the runway,
Am                                  G
Got to get airborne before it's too late.
[Pre-chorus]
Em                  C C/B
                   (  ) *
Running, scrambling, fire,
Em                        C C/B
                         (  )
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again.
Em                  C C/B
                   (  )
Running, scrambling, fire,
Em                C C/B
                 (  )
Rolling, turning, diving.
[Chorus]
Em   C    D
Run, live to
Em   C   D
fly, fly to
Em    C  D
live, do or
Em   C     D
die. Won't you
Gm   Eb   F
run, live to
Gm   Eb  F
fly, fly to
Gm    Eb F
live, A--ces
Gm   Eb  F
high!
Am
(x8 bars)
[Solo]
Am  F G Am  C D
                (x2)
Bm  G A Bm  D E
                (x2)
Am
(x8 bars)
[Verse 2]
Em                                   D
Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers,
Em                                   D
Let off a sharp burst and then turn away.
Em                                 D
Roll over, spin round to come in behind them,
Em                                   D
Move to their blindsides and firing again.
Am                             G
Bandits at 8 o'clock move in behind us,
Am                      G
Ten ME-109's out of the sun.
 Am                                    G
Ascending and turning our Spitfires to face them,
Am                                        G
Heading straight for them I press down my guns.
[Pre-chorus]
Em                  C C/B
                   (  ) *
Running, scrambling, fire,
Em                        C C/B
                         (  )
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again.
Em                  C C/B
                   (  )
Running, scrambling, fire,
Em                C C/B
                 (  )
Rolling, turning, diving.
[Chorus]
Em   C    D
Run, live to
Em   C   D
fly, fly to
Em    C  D
live, do or
Em   C     D
die. Won't you
Gm   Eb   F
run, live to
Gm   Eb  F
fly, fly to
Gm    Eb F
live, A--ces
Gm   Eb  F
high!
Am  F G
        (x4)
(On the last F, G slow it down a load)
Am
to finish, hold this and outro fill as you see fit.
