I think the intro is played in 3 different positions by guitar 1
whilst guitar 2 just plays the above riff 3 times
1st time - G --14b16--14-11----12-14p12p11--12--
2nd " " - B --15b17--15-12----13-15p13p12--13--
3rd " " - E --15b17--15-12----13-15p13p12--13--

The songs quite easy to play, listen to the song
to get the strumming right though. Sorry i haven't
included the solo rhythm, i don't know how it goes.
Let me know if there any mistakes, comments and
suggestion also welcome.
Hope this isn't to bad as its my 1st tab.

Actually I have to agree with anthrax. The way he sings does kind of sound like "Caught somewhere in tyuuuuurrrrmmmm!" Anyway, I fucking LOVE this song. It's definitely my favourite off the album and probably in my top 5 Maiden songs.

Well, I DID agree with TonganDeathGrip, right up until the whole alternate universe thingy... "If you had the time to lose, An open mind and time to choose, Would you care to take a look, Or can you read me like a book?" The devil is asking if the guy has the time to go to another time, maybe to see himself in the future. Then he asks if the guy KNOWS that the devil is going to take his soul, seeing thorough his scam. "Can I tempt you, come with me, Be Devil may care, fulfill your dream, If I said I'd take you there, Would you go, would you be scared?" This sounds like the devil is asking if the guy is willing to do something scary in order to fulfill his dream. "Make you an offer you can't refuse, You've only got your soul to lose... Eternally...Just let yourself go!" This sounds like the actual offer, eternal enslavement to the devil, losing your soul, etc. "Like a wolf in sheep's clothing, You try to hide your deepest sins, Of all the things that you've done wrong, And I know where you belong." The devil can see through the guy trying to mask his sins by acting good, and knows that he belongs in Hell. Basically, the song is about a guy who wants to time travel, probably to the future. The devil comes and offers to take him if he's really devoted. The devil tries to pursuade him to give him his soul in order to take him to the future. The guy apparently agrees, as the chorus is "caught somewhere in time". He is stuck somewhere in the future and can't leave. Maybe he doesn't like it, maybe he misses his home. In any case the devil never takes him back. "Time is always on my side" maybe refers to the fact that the devil can control time, in the song, to take the guy to the future and dump him there.

yeah, anthrax i have no idea what you're talking about. the vocals are pretty distinct, unless you're trying to be funny or something. anyway, this song is great. somewhere in time is one of my favorite maiden albums.

No it doesn't. It sounds like it says "Caught soomewhere in time" as they are the lyrics. How you can even think it that the sound "ty" is the sound "tur" I don't know. It doesn't even come close to sounding like that. anyway, good song about someone who's got power over time and can go anywhere, I think.
