Official FAITH NO MORE Tablature & Sheet Music »
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Group: Faith No More
Song : Digging The Grave
Album: King For A Day, Fool For A Lifetime
Transcribed by: Martin van Aert (email: mvaert@iaehv.IAEhv.nl)
I may have messed up the Interlude-part, but the rest is pretty accurate.
Just use loads of distortion and a slight delay (aprox. 100 ms). Enjoy it!
Any suggestions and/or comments on this piece are welkom. I'm also still
looking for a good version of the Smashing Pumpkins version of Landslide.

SONG TEXT:
It would be wrong to ask you why
Because I know what goes on inside
Is only half of what comes out
Isn't that what it's about?
To remind us we're alive
To remind us we're not blind
In that big, black hole
Comfortable
Digging the grave, I got it made
Let something in, or throw something out?
You left the door open wide
I know you have a reason why
That knot is better left untied
I just went and undid mine
It takes some time
And the shadows so big
It takes the sun out of the day
And the feeling goes away
If you close the door
Comfortable

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 FAITH NO MORE 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.
