ROINE'S-THEME:
Neal's piano track originally opened the song with this theme leading into the arpeggio riff
but it was replaced by a transposed arrangement of the strings prelude from "Stranger In Your
Soul". The theme is reprised in different keys and over varying harmonic progressions with a
shorter complimentary theme. Those later sections are all in 6/8 time where the three-note
groups are clearly even eighths, however when played in 4/4 the rhythm is closer to a rhumba
pattern (3+3+2-sixteenths) than quarter-note triplets.
Aside from all of the variation there is some confusion over the written melody. During
overdubbing sessions Neal rang Roine to confirm the pick-up into the second phrase.
Guitar tracks included scalar steps
G A Bb C
or
minor-third skips
G Bb A
While the 'skips' appeared to be favoured by Roine and the other declared a "scratch track"
the final mix alternates between the two. However, on "Live In Europe" Roine plays the 'steps'
in all cases except the two repeats in Part IV. The early mix on Portnoy's instructional DVD
"Chaos In Motion" also features the 'steps' melody.
TAB shows actual pitches but Roine bends and slides into many notes.

III. SILENCE OF THE NIGHT
INTERLUDE:
Note that the F#m-chord always has a duration of seven eighths - after the time signature
changes to 4/4 the G-chord anticipates the down-beat.
Two fills can be played within the strummed chords. Sax-figure recalls the guitar riff from
the introduction with a sequence and another harmony variation.

The LINK bar introduces a shuffle with eighths grouped in threes. Note that
the eighth duration is the same as before. These are not eighth-triplets over
the previous beat which would result in an increase in tempo.
Rhythm continues as 12/8 plus 2/8 with 6/8 breaks.
The melody places previously syncopated accents on the beat and vice versa.

Final verse is sung a third higher over the (mostly) same chords.
Guitar adds a low third to the Cadd2 hence the name change to Cadd9.

ROINE'S-THEME-FINALE:
TAB shows actual pitches but is not a transcription of the performance.
Roine plays the 'steps' pick-up line on "Live In Europe".
While he can clearly be seen beginning on the 3rd-string Fret-12 the theme is presented
here with fingering consistent with the other two keys (F as earlier and Eb).
