This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Song

My Dying Bride: Apocalypse Woman

Tune down 1-1/2 step.

I´ve tabbed this one in three hours and without amplification, so I`m not

shure about the parts w/distorsion.

BASS INTRO:

E |--------------------------|
B |--------------------------|         This is the only bass riff I`ve

F#|4-5-5-5-5--4-5--5--4-5-5-5| tabbed. Drums start after 2nd

C#|--------------------------| repeat of this, guitars after

the 10th.

VERSE RIFF:

C#|-----------1-------------------0-----|
G#|-----3---3---------------1---1-------|
E |---2---2---------------2---2---------|
B |-0-------------------0---------------|
F#|-------------------------------------|
C#|-------------------------------------|

In first version Aarons begins after the 2nd repeat of this. In other

versions just after the first.
