Note: There was only the intro to the verse that was originally tabbed out,
and some chords along with it. But I finnished the verse and tabbed
out the rest of the song.
Credits to mcdonghj@unix2.tcd.ie for some of the intro part.
There is a really good cover made by The Mist Of Avalon. Go check it
out at www.mist-of-avalon.com
This tab use real timing.
Also look for the basstab which I've tabbed.
The original song have three guitars, but the third is only used for the
last solo. The other solos is played by a synth.

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.
