FASTER PUSSYCAT - "house of pain" Tablature
Official FASTER PUSSYCAT Tablature & Sheet Music »
Hope this proves of some use to you. It may be a bit difficult to follow, in
which case I apologise in advance, but it shouldn't be too bad. I'm new at
TABbing stuff and it's more difficult than it looks!! If you know the song well
enough then you should be able to follow the tab as you listen to it and figure
it out from there. The fundamentals are there though and it shouldn't take too
much work on your part to figure it out.
Faster Pussycat
House of Pain
:From the album Wake me When it's Over.
This is the intro and is played for the first four bars before going on to fig.2

If you want any other stuff from the first album I've figured pretty much of it
so please feel free to mail me and ask. I also know Poison Ivy and Where There's
a Whip There's a Way. Good luck with it.

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 FASTER PUSSYCAT 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.
