Man On The Silver Mountain (2) by Rainbow
RAINBOW - Man On The Silver Mountain (2) guitar tab
Rainbow
Man on the Silver Mountain
Transcribed by Guitar Freak
From "Ritchie Blackmores Rainbow" Rainbow (1975)
Words: Ronnie James Dio, Music: Dio/Blackmore
## Author's Note:
I prefer the faster Dio solo version with Vivian Campbell but this is the
slower Rainbow version transcribed here. Vivian took some of Blackmore's
solo bits and improvised around them making it his own but stayed to the
original chord wise ##
