Watchman.. Fields of the Nephilim.
I'll now try to write down the Watchman intro, but be prepared to
move it to a different key (it sounded alright to me last time I
played it to the record - see what you think)
Riff 1 Riff 2 Riff 3
..............|------|..|------|...........|------------------------------|..
E|---2--0-0---2--0-0---------0---------0----0------0------0------0------0---|
B|-00-00-0-0---00-0-0---30010-0--300110-0-----0-1-1--0-1-1--0-1-1--0-110-0--|
G|----------0--------0---------0---------0-2-2-2-2--2-2-2--2-2-2--2-2-----0-|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
So as you can see the first bit follows the pattern:
2 x Riff1 + 2 x Riff2 + Riff3
The two parts with singing follow the pattern:
Riff1 + Riff2 + 2xRiff1 + 2xRiff2 + Riff3 (there is a little
embellishment here and there)
But on the very last time lose the last five notes of Riff3 and
sustain the last '1' on the B-string. One other point is when you
play the '2's in Riff3 sustain the note throughout the sequence.
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 FIELDS OF THE NEPHILIM 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.
