	        Hi folks. My name is Eduardo Kepczynski.
I had expend many hours listening to this song and trying to play it.
There is little differences between the live and the studio version.
Iīm sure itīs not perfect, but it was the most i could do.
It will help everyone who wants to play this awesome song.
Feel free to add some hammer on, pull off, artificial harmonics and palm mute. 
Improvisation rules.
I tabbed only a few solos. The fastest ones i didnt.
I will add them soon.

Tune down 1/2 step.

Any doubt or corrections, please send me an e-mail at
[email protected]
Iīll apreciate.


PM = Palm Mute
~ = Vibrato
h = Hammer on
p = Pull off
 = Slide down
/ = Slide up
b = Bend
rb = Release Bend
@ = Artificial Harmonic

  Lyrics


In a circle of fire
On a cold winter night
I spoke out my desire
Made a promise
I couldnīt hide, no!

In a dream
He came along and told me
'Your time has come
Your mind belongs to me'

Itīs the time of the oath
The time of the oath
My sweetest memories die in the cold
Itīs the time of the oath

See me covered with sadness
And Iīll soon wish to die
When the overcoming madness
Is eating up my mind

Here and now
I look back at a good time
No more lie - I slowly say good-bye
Itīs the time of the oath
The time of the oath
My sweetest memories die in the cold
Itīs the time of the oath

In a dream
He came along and told me
'Your time has come
Just slowly say good-bye'

Itīs the time of the oath
The time of the oath
My sweetest memories die in the cold
Itīs the time of the oath




  Latin:

Di-es i-rae, di-es il-la
Sol-vet sae-cium in fa-villa
Quan-tus tre-mor est fu-tu-rus
Quan-do ju-dex est ven-turus


  HAPPY HAPPY HELLOWEEN
