The Spider's Lullabye by King Diamond from The Spider's Lullabye
Music and Lyrics by King Diamond
Tabbed and transcribed by Alex Huerta ( marilion@imparcial.com.mx )
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Legend :
p = pull_off \ = Slide down
h = hammer_on ... = Repeat the pattern until you reach the note.
/ = Slide up x2 = Repeat it that time and another one.
v = Vibrato rk = Rake ( play the strings one after the other )
Guitar1 = Harpsichord.
Guitar2 = Distorted Guitar.
Guitar3 = Organ with the 6th string ( the low E ) tuned to C#
Guitar4 = Clean guitar.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes :
This is one of the easiest King Diamond songs, IMHO, but it's a good one
nevertheless. It can be played by one guitarist and a keyboard player with
the keyboard taking the "Solo" and the guitar keeping the rhythm going.
The solo is played this way : you go down the string playing a repeating
pattern of one note and the other two frets away from the first
( i.e., 19 and 21, 18 and 20, etc. ) until you reach the last note on the
tab. It's only and aprox, because it doesn't sound like he ( the one
playing the solo :-) is following a scale or something.
This is dedicated to Fernanda.
Esto es para el Asterix : Oye cabron, mandame un mail!!! se me perdi— tu

chingaso ( que significa muy bien ). Andale, no te hagas del rogar...

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 KING DIAMOND 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.
