This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.
Song
"Body Elecric" by The Sisters of Mercy (from the album "Some Girls Wander by Mistake")
==========================================================================================
transcribed by James A Tucker <TUCKERJA@ibm3090.computer-centre.birmingham.ac.uk>
Tune guitar a semitone up from normal
(or use a CAPO on first fret -JMcD)
Intro & Verses
==============
There's several different ways of playing this, I'll put them all in.
Get the rhythm off the record.
e---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B-----------------------------------OR----------------------OR--------------| G--------------------2--2-2---2--2------------------------------------------| D-0-0-0-0xloads-2-2---------------------------------7--7------0loads------7-|etc A-------------------0--0----0---0------5xloads-7-7-0-0--etc----------7-7-0--| E---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
In the verses the bass thuds out;
G
D
A -00-33-00-33--------------------
E in appropriate timing
Chorus

Guitar:
e------------------------------------------------------------------------| B-----11--------------13--------------10---------------------------------| G-----10--------------12--------------9----------------------------------| D-----8---------------10--------------7----------------------------------| A------------------------------------------------------------------------| E------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bass:
G
D
A-----1--0-1--0-1-0---3--1-3--1-3-1---0--

The Guitar plays really distorted stuff for the last bit of the song, you'll
have to work out what sounds good yourself!
Excellent bass riff
