I find this riff a little easier to play than all the stretching in the
previous version:
Main riffs:
e ---5---0-------------------
B ----------6--------0-------
G -------------7--6----------
D -7---7---------------7-----
A ---------------------------
E ---------------------------
>e -------------------------3---1-0---
>B -0/1-1--0/1-1--1/3-3-3-3---3-------
>G -----------------------------------
>D -----------------------------------
>A -----------------------------------
>E -----------------------------------
>A twelve string guitar plays, at "Run around in the radiation":
>e -0-1-----0--0-1-----0--0-1-----0--0-1-----0---
>B ---------------------------1----------1-------
>G -----2-2--------2-2----------2----------2-----
>D ----------------------------------------------
>A ----------------------------------------------
>E ----------------------------------------------
>...and an Am Gm F pattern at "So still, so dark..."
>Listen where to play the respective part. Not that tricky.
>The chords are pretty easy, simply Am F in the intro, Am D in
>the verses, and Am F in the chorus.
>There are several guitars playing on the record. To play it on just
>one guitar, the following blend of the chords & riffs can be used
>(leave the notes ringing for as long as possible) :
>For the Am F pattern :
>e ---0---0----1---0----------
>B ------------1-------3-1-0--
>G -2---2---2--2-2---2--------
>D -2----------3--------------
>A -0-------------------------
>E ---------------------------
>, and for the Am D one :
>e -------------------------------------------------------------
>B -0/1-1-1--1-1-1--0/1-1-1--1-1-1--1-3-3-3--3-3-3--3---1---0---
>G -2---2-2--2-2-2--2---2-2--2-2-2--2-2-2-2--2-2-2--3---1---0---
>D -2---2-2--2-2-2--2---2-2--2-2-2--2-0-0-0--0-0-0--2-2---2-----
>A -0---0-0--0-0-0--0---0-0--0-0-0--0---------------0-0---0-----
>E -------------------------------------------------------------
>(The rhythm of this can look difficult to follow, however it will
>hopefully make sense when you listen to the song.)
I happened to have FALAA on tonight, and got inspired to figure out
what he's *really* playing. Close to what I had, but not exactly.
(It's almost exactly what I'd had about two revisions ago... :) Here's
the Real Thing.
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 SISTERS OF MERCY 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.
