CURE - "fight" Tablature
Official CURE Tablature & Sheet Music »
From: "mr. nobody explodes" <jieuryli@eden.rutgers.edu>
Subject: FIGHT by The Cure
Fight
(words by Robert Smith, music by Laurence Tolhurst, Simon Gallup, Porl
Thompson, Boris Williams, and Robert Smith)
This is the track that closes -Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me-, a total hopeful
track for Cure fans alike (but I am not a critic so I will not go on).
I have transcribed the basic guitar riff for the verses, the synth line for
the verses as well as chorus, and the guitar chords for the chorus.
The verse riff is:
E -------------------------------------
B -------------------------------------
G -------------------------------------
D -------------------------------------
A ----1--1p0----0--3--3--1--6----------
E -3---------3-------------------------
(make sure you slide between the last two notes, meaning slide between
fret 1 and 6).
The synthesizer riff (fit for guitar) for the verse is:
E -3----1-------------1--||-6------------------1--||
B -3---------4--3--4-----||-8----6----4--3--4-----||
G -----------------------||-----------------------||
D -----------------------||-----------------------||
A -----------------------||-----------------------||
E -----------------------||-----------------------||
(the double vertical lines in between means to repeat the riff)
For the ~Fight! Fight! Fight!~ part, the guitar plays a D5 chord (with
three staccato strums -hence the fight! fight! fight! part- it plays
D5 for about a second after that, then plays the C5 for another second,
then it plays C5 staccato three times. In between is the synth line.
If you work on it, you will know what I mean.
Synth lines inbetween -Fight! Fight! Fight!-
D5 C5 C5 D5
E -------------- E ------------------
B -3h4-3---1---- B -1h3-4--4--3-3----
G -------------- .............. G ------------------
D -------------- D ------------------
A -------------- A ------------------
E -------------- E ------------------
That is basically it. The song ends on D5 and that is about it. Bye-bye
for now.
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 CURE 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.
