Some explanations:
1.For the intro and RIFF 7 you must fret the low E string on the 1st
fret, prebend a whole step and then release (that's what the R means).
2.Blank columns (as in Riff 1) do not count in timing. They are used
only to distinguish the tab numbers.
3.p=p
ull-off h=hammer on
Song flow and lyrics:

Has he lost his mind? Can he see or is he blind?
Can he walk at all? Or if he moves will he fall?

Is he 'live or dead? Has he thoughts within his head?
We'll just pass him there. Why should we even care?

Where he traveled time for the future of mankind

Vengeance from the grave kills all the people he once saved
