                          Charlotte The Harlot
                             by Iron Maiden
                         Tabbed by John Twynam (wratchild@geocities.com)


This is the intro part (one guitar):

A---7-p5--5--5-----5-----5--|-----7-----7--7-----|----------------------
E---------------------------|--------------------|----------------------

One guitar plays the above riff again, and the other guitar plays this:

E----------------------------|-------------------------|----------------
B---10--------8-----7--------|-------------------------|----------------
G-------------------------9--|-----7-----7--7h9--9--9--|----------------
D----------------------------|-------------------------|----------------
A----------------------------|-------------------------|----------------
E----------------------------|-------------------------|----------------

G------9p7--7--7-----7-----7--|-----7-----9-----9--9--|-----------------
D-----------------------------|-----------------------|-----------------
A-----------------------------|-----------------------|-----------------
E-----------------------------|-----------------------|-----------------

Then they play this (guitar 1 plays the top notes, guitar 2 plays the
bottom notes):

E---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------
B---10-----8------7-----8---|--10-----8------7-----8---|----------------
G---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------
D---12-----10-----9-----10--|--12-----10-----9-----10--|----------------

B---10-----8------7--10--|-----8-----7--9--------|----------------------

D---12-----10-----9--7---|-----5-----4--2--------|----------------------
A---12-----10-----9--7---|-----5-----4--2--------|----------------------
E------------------------|-----------------------|----------------------

    (both guitars)
E-------------------|-----------|------------------|--------------------
B-------------------|-----------|------------------|--------------------
G---12--------7-----|--9--------|--12--------7-----|--------------------
D---12--------7-----|--9--------|--12--------7-----|--------------------
A---10--------5-----|--7--------|--10--------5-----|--------------------
E-------------------|-----------|------------------|--------------------

This is the verse riff (both guitars play 8 times):

E--------------------|----------------|---------------------------------
B--------------------|----------------|---------------------------------
G--------------------|----------------|---------------------------------
D---9--9--7h9-----9--|--12-----12--7--|---------------------------------
A---7--7--7-------7--|--10-----10--5--|---------------------------------
E--------------------|----------------|---------------------------------

This is the chorus riff (both guitars play twice):

E----------------------|------------------------|-----------------------
B----------------------|------------------------|-----------------------
G----------------------|------------------------|-----------------------
D---9--9--7/9-----9----|--12-----12/14-----7----|-----------------------
A---7--7--5/7-----7----|--10-----10/12-----5----|-----------------------
E----------------------|------------------------|-----------------------

E----------------------|----------------------|-------------------------
B----------------------|----------------------|-------------------------
G----------------------|----------------------|-------------------------
D---7--7--5/7-----7----|-------------9--x--x--|-------------------------
A---5--5--3/5-----5----|--2p0--------7--x--x--|-------------------------
E----------------------|-------3~~~-----------|-------------------------

This is the part right after the chorus (both guitars):

E------------------|----------------|-----------------------------------
B------------------|----------------|-----------------------------------
G------------------|----------------|-----------------------------------
D---9--9-----9-----|--12--12--7-----|-----------------------------------
A---7--7-----7-----|--10--10--5-----|-----------------------------------
E------------------|----------------|-----------------------------------
 
E----------------------------------|-----------------|------------------
B----------------------------------|-----------------|------------------
G----------------------------------|-----------------|------------------
D---9/14-----9--9/14---------------|--9--9-----9-----|------------------
A---7/12-----7--7/12--14p12\10-----|--7--7-----7-----|------------------
E----------------------------------|-----------------|------------------
 
E-----------------|---------------------|-------------------------------
B-----------------|---------------------|-------------------------------
G-----------------|--4p2p0-----0--2--0--|-------------------------------
D---12--12--7-----|---------2-----------|-------------------------------
A---10--10--5-----|---------------------|-------------------------------
E-----------------|---------------------|-------------------------------

Now repeat from where the first verse starts all the way up to the above
riff, then play this (both guitars):

E---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------
B---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------
G---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------
D---2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--|--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--|----------------
A---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------
E---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------
  
      (one guitar plays top notes, another plays the bottom)
E------------------------|----------------------------------------------
B------------------------|----------------------------------------------
G------7--5--4--2--0-----|----------------------------------------------
D---2--9--7--5--4--2--4--|----------------------------------------------
A---------------------5--|----------------------------------------------
E------------------------|----------------------------------------------

The slower part is kinda hard to make an accurate tab of. I'll just give
you the basic idea. Both guitars are playing arpeggios of chords C major
and then E minor, and after a while A minor. The progression is: C, Em,
C, Em, C, Em, C, Em, C, Am, Em, Em. They play that twice. These are the
chord formations:

    C         Em       Am
E---8---------7--------5------------------------------------------------
B---8---------8--------5------------------------------------------------
G---9---------9--------5------------------------------------------------
D---10--------9--------7------------------------------------------------
A---10--------7--------7------------------------------------------------
E---8---------7--------5------------------------------------------------

Then it gets faster. Both guitars play this (4 times):

E---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------
B---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------
G---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------
D---9--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--|--9--9--9--9--9--7--------|----------------
A---7--7--7--7--7--7--7--7--|--7--7--7--7--7--5--------|----------------
E---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------

Then one guitar keeps playing that, while the other plays a solo:

E-------12-12-----12-12-----12-|-12-----12-12-----12-|------------------
B-------12-12-----12-12-----12-|-12-----12-12-15^----|------------------
G---14^-------14^-------14^----|----14^--------------|------------------
D------------------------------|---------------------|------------------
A------------------------------|---------------------|------------------
E------------------------------|---------------------|------------------
   
E---15-12-15p12----12----------------|------------------|---------------
B---------------15----15p12-15p12h15-|---------15h17p15-|---------------
G------------------------------------|-14^--------------|---------------
D------------------------------------|------------------|---------------
A------------------------------------|------------------|---------------
E------------------------------------|------------------|---------------
 
E--------------|-----------------------------|-------------------|------
B---17^-----15-|-17p15p14-15p14\12-----------|-------------------|------
G--------------|-------------------14-12-14^-|-(14)-----12-14-12-|------
D--------------|-----------------------------|-------------------|------
A--------------|-----------------------------|-------------------|------
E--------------|-----------------------------|-------------------|------
 
E------------------------|----------------------------------------------
B------------------------|----------------------------------------------
G---11h12p11-12p11h12----|----------------------------------------------
D---------------------14-|----------------------------------------------
A------------------------|----------------------------------------------
E------------------------|----------------------------------------------

Now that guitar plays the rhythm part, while the other plays a solo:

E------------------------------------|----------------------------------
B-------12h15p12-----12h15p12-----12-|----------------------------------
G---14^----------14^----------14^----|----------------------------------
D------------------------------------|----------------------------------
A------------------------------------|----------------------------------
E------------------------------------|----------------------------------
  
E---------------------------------------|-------------------------------
B---15p12-----12h15p12-----12h15p12-----|-------------------------------
G---------14^----------14^----------14^-|-------------------------------
D---------------------------------------|-------------------------------
A---------------------------------------|-------------------------------
E---------------------------------------|-------------------------------
 
E---------------------------------------------------|-------------------
B---12h15p12----12h15p12----12h15p12----12h15p12----|-------------------
G------------14----------14----------14----------14-|-------------------

G------------14----------14----------14-------------|-------------------
D---------------------------------------------------|-------------------
A---------------------------------------------------|-------------------
E---------------------------------------------------|-------------------

E---------------------------------------------------|-------------------
B---20p17----17-20p17----17-20p17----17-20p17----17-|-------------------
G---------19----------19----------19----------19----|-------------------
D---------------------------------------------------|-------------------
A---------------------------------------------------|-------------------
E---------------------------------------------------|-------------------
 
E---------------------------------------------------|---------------|---
B---20p17----17-20p17----17-20p17----17-20p17----17-|-22^-22^-20h22-|---
G---------19----------19----------19----------19----|---------------|---
D---------------------------------------------------|---------------|---
A---------------------------------------------------|---------------|---
E---------------------------------------------------|---------------|---

E-------------------|---------------------------------------------------
B---20p17----17-----|---------------------------------------------------
G---------19----19^-|---------------------------------------------------
D-------------------|---------------------------------------------------
A-------------------|---------------------------------------------------
E-------------------|---------------------------------------------------

Now one guitar play this (twice):

E------------|------------|---------------------------------------------
B------------|------------|---------------------------------------------
G---9--------|--12-----7--|---------------------------------------------
D---9--------|--12-----7--|---------------------------------------------
A---7--------|--10-----5--|---------------------------------------------
E------------|------------|---------------------------------------------

The other guitar plays this over top:

            trill...
E-------------------|--------------------|------------------------------
B--------8--7--(8)--|--7-----8-----------|------------------------------
G---7h9-------------|-----------9--------|------------------------------
D-------------------|--------------------|------------------------------
A-------------------|--------------------|------------------------------
E-------------------|--------------------|------------------------------

Now repeat from the second verse until the end of the second chorus, 
then play this (both guitars):

E---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------
B---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------
G---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------
D---2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--|--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--|----------------
A---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------
E---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------

Now play the intro riff again, but replace the last bar with this (as
usual, one guitar plays the top notes and the other plays the bottom):

E-----------------------|------------------|----------------------------
B---10-----8------7-----|------------------|----------------------------
G--------------------9--|--6-----------14--|----------------------------
D---12-----10-----9--7--|--11--7---6---14--|----------------------------
A---12-----10-----9--7--|--11--12--11--12--|----------------------------
E-----------------------|------12--11------|----------------------------
