BAUHAUS - "three shadows" Tablature
Official BAUHAUS Tablature & Sheet Music »
Tabbed by: jscsp@acad3.alaska.edu (Chris S Parker)
Part (A) is played throughout the entire song. Part (B) is played on a second
guitar along with it. The other parts could be played by a third guitarist, or
an overdub - whichever your resources allow. Each riff is split into 3 bars
here, the last one seems shorter than the first two, but all these notes line
up right if you've heard the song (I estimate it to be half the size of the
others).

(2) (A)+(B)X1
(3) (A)+(B)+(C)X1
(4) (A)+(B)X1
(5) (A)+(B)+(D)X1
(6) (A)+(B)+(E)X1
(7) (A)+(B)+(X)X1
(8) (A)+(B)+(C)X1
[note: let the notes ring, lightly bend the bridge high then back to normal
while hitting each note for the same tone as I hear on my recording. These
notes have longer pauses between them than it looks - play it slow.]

[note: I didn't tab this because I wasn't sure as to the exact tone - but its
just a few notes bent up and down]
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official BAUHAUS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
