 "Master Of Disharmony" as performed by Dimmu Borgir on their mini EP "Devil's Path" and on their
 1997 album "Enthrone Darkness Triumphant"

Transcribed by Arjan (arjanbarman@hotmail.com) on 9 September 1998
Major corrected by Lord Upir on 6 October 1999
Last addition on 21 May 2000
Latest version always available on www.theblackdeath.cjb.net

Both guitars in normal tuning (EADGBe)

There is a bit different between the recordings on "Devil's Path" and "Enthrone...". The "Devil's
Path"-version has an intro and it's a bit slower than the "Enthrone..."-version. I think the
DP-version is better.

INTRO with weird drum and keyboard sounds, and at
(1:12) we hear a guitar...

  Master of disharmony, welcome my tained soul
  Take me from the hordes of the living into the blessed darkness
  Master of disorder take my impure flesh
  Lead me unto the path of temptation
  save me from cowardness
