                      The Educated Fool
                by Iron Maiden (Steve Harris)
                  off the Album "Virtual XI"
   Transcribed by Matthias Baumann (matschga@hotmail.com)

INTRO-Riff 1 (play it 2 times, Steve plays the chords):

   Em      |-let ring------>  C              G          D
E|--------------------------|-----------------------------| 
B|--------------------------|-----------------------------|
G|--------------------------|-----------------------------|
D|----9-10-9----------------|----9-10-9-10-9-/12---10-9---|
A|-12-----------------------|-12-----------------------12-|
E|--------------------------|-----------------------------|

INTRO-Riff 2 (also 2 times, Steve is still playing the chords):

  Em           |-let ring-->  C                        D
|---------------------------|-----------------------------------| 
|---7-8-10-8-7-8------------|---7-8-10-8-7-8---10/12---10-8-10--|
|-9-------------------------|-9---------------------------------|
|---------------------------|-----------------------------------|
|---------------------------|-----------------------------------|
|---------------------------|-----------------------------------|

During the first verse guitar 1 plays the chords by picking 
the following pattern (this is just a sample so that you get the idea):

  Em            Em           Em        C           G        D
|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------|
|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------|
|------9---9--------9---9--------9---|-----5---5--------------------7----|
|----9---9---9----9---9---9----9---9-|---5---5---5-----5---5------7---7--|
|-7-------------7------------7-------|-3-------------5---5---5--5--------|
|------------------------------------|-------------3---------------------|

VERSE 1:

         Em                    C                    G               D
  I'm an educated fool   so I don't ...
             Em                               C                     D 
  About this awkward situation   ...
          Em                      C             G         D      
  As I'm walking down into  on my ...
         Em                                 C              D
  Got a lifetime of experience   Yeah ...


CHORUS RIFF (don't let the notes ring [mute 'em with your palm]):

  Em                   
|---------------------------------|
|---------------------------------|
|---------------------------------|
|----9----7-----5-----5--7p5--5h7-|   (play this 4 times)
|-7----7-----7-----7--------------|
|---------------------------------|
  Open the page...

The Second Verse is played (heavily!) distorted, so there's a new 
pattern:

  Em                          C       G      D (let ring)
|---------------------------|--------------------------------|
|---------------------------|--------------------------------|
|-9-------9---9--9---9--9-9-|-5--5-----------7---------------|
|-9-------9---9--9---9--9-9-|-5--5----5--5---7---------------|
|-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--7-7-7--7-7-|-3--3----5--5---5---------------|
|---------------------------|---------3--3-------------------|
..felt this way before...

VERSE 2:
        Em                                 C              G           D
  Never felt this way before   seems ...
door
         Em                                       C           D
  To the book of life ... or is it ...
             Em                         C          G          D 
  Someone's looking down on me  to ...
              Em                            c               D       
  They won't tell me what they ...

Repeat CHORUS RIFF 8 times, then

VERSE 3:
          Em                   C               G         D
  Do you really wanna be  just ...
            Em                             C                 D
  That you really should aspire  ...
         Em                           C              G         D
  Do you ever really feel   ...
            Em                            C                D  
  What you really have to giv...
