I’ve noticed that there is two guitars
playing on this bit below
but I don’t know what fret it starts on.

You could try the section
above on the 9th fret of the d string
but to me it is more of a challenge this way.
At the last chorus, the guitar harmonizes
with the ’as we kill them all’ guitar line.
It goes something like this -

I stand alone in this desolate space,
In death they are truly alive.
Massacred innocence, evil took place,
the angels were burning inside.
Centuries later, i wonder why
What secret they took to their grave,
still burning heretics under our skies,
Religion still burning inside.
At the gates at the walls of montseguer
Blood on the stones of the citadel
As we kill them all so god will know his own
the innocents died for the pope on his throne
catholic greed and its paranoid zeal,
gurse of the grail and the blood of the cross
Templar relievers with blood on their hands
joined in the chorus to kill on demand
Burned at the stake for their souls liberty
to stand with the cathars to die and be free
The book of old testament crippled and black
Satan his weapon is lust
living this evil damnation of flesh
back to the torture of life
The perfect would willingly die at the stake
and all of their followers slain
As for the knowledge of god they have claimed
religion still burning inside
At the gates at the walls of montseguer
Blood on the stones of the citadel
AS we kill them all so god will know his own
laugh at the darkness and in god we trust
The eye of the the triangle smiling with sin
no passover feast for the cursed within
Facing the sun as they went to their grave
burn like a dog or you live like a slave
Death is the price for your souls liberty
To stand with the cathars to die and be free
At the gates at the walls of montseguer
Blood on the stones of the citadel
YEEHAW! ENJOY!
