Iron Man1 tab by Black Sabbath

This is set to regular tuning, and no I don’t know either of the solos but I do know the rest of the song so here it is.

Tab Key:

/ or \ = Slide
Ho = Hammer on
Po = Pull off
B = Bend
MR = Main Riff


On some tabs I’ve seen the first part done with bend.
That’s fine but the way its actually done is he bends down the low E string behind the
nut then strums, lets that ring for 3 beats then lets up and lets that ring for 3 beats.
It can be done either way, but the above method does make your string go out of tune.
No matter which you use though its done three times.

E] -1B -1B -1B - - - - - - - - -

If you use the regular bend it goes like this.

Note the riff after the bends. This is the main riff that constantly comes up throughout
the song. And actually after the bends you should play the Main Riff twice followed by
a verse which just a variation of it.

 After you play this once slide back to the 3rd fret and play it a second time.
