Hi from Russia, BG fans! I've worked out the LOTR notes and
compared to the lotr1.htm. I think my variant is better,
'coz I've tuned the guitar to the recording and matched almost
every note. I've taken a lot from lotr1.txt, thanks to the creator.

  drive them into darkness  for-

  G          G/F        Am
  ev - er   they'll be bound
  

  G/F   - that's it.

  and there's    no way        out                     
                                                      Here solo begins 
                                             (I've not managed to get it
                                              but surely in lotr1.htm it's
                                              completely wrong. It's better
                                              in lotr2.htm, however. Usually
                                              I'd like to sing it either)

  Here are the chords for that solo (that's the only part I'm not sure, 
  but I use this chords) :
