This is the final song on Cradle Of Filth's album Bitter Suites To Succubi.
As you all know, cradle of filth have two guitarists, Gian Pyres and Paul
Allander, and a bassist (the newest addition to cradle of filth might I add)
David Pybus, former anathema. I'm going to tab both guitars for this
song, and maybe i'll do the bass in a few weeks. When the tablature space
is blankm that means that the guitar isn't doing anything at the time.
But enought chit-chat..... lets do this....
Tune both guitars one step to D

This is the chorus. The part where dani sings "Once the forest spired!
nurtured in nature's heart..... etc." listen to the song, becaure im not
sure about this part.

Okay for these next parts just repeat figures 3 and 4. But for this part, i'll
only tab what i've figured out so far, god damn paul plays some weird off
beat that I cant quite figure out. I know what I have is correct, so just try
to figure out the rest.

Just play that a few times then play it in palm muted power chords when
dani starts to sing. It's as simple as that.
If you have any cradle of filth requests, from any album, just e-mail me at
creepingdeathforever@yahoo.com and ask for a song. I'll transcribe it as
best as I can. And while yer at it, check out my band's website at
http://www.draculove.com and rock out to some METAL!!!
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 CRADLE OF FILTH 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.
