Black God Tab by My Dying Bride My Dying Bride - BLACK GOD Taken from the album 'Turn Loose The Swans' Transcribed by Roland de Graauw Send questions, comment or corrections to graauw@pi.net Normal Tuning I transposed the piano and violin for guitar (or bass), this results in a lot of slides on the violin parts (listen to the song to get 'em right). There are also a LOT of repeats, which I didn't count, so I'll just give the variations, which are played in the song. Piano (starts after the low synth-FX) var.1 e -----------------------|-------------------| B -----------------------|-------------------| G --------------10---9---|--7----12--10--9---| D --7----9--10-----------|-------------------| A -----------------------|-------------------| E -----------------------|-------------------| var.2 e -----------------------|-----------------------| B -----------------------|-----------------------| G --------------10---9---|--7----12--10--9---7---| D --7----9--10-----------|-----------------------| A -----------------------|-----------------------| E -----------------------|-----------------------| Violin (Use a lot of sustain to make the slides sound best) Note: Play along with the song to get the rythm right; the violin-rythm is not the same as the piano-rythm on certain parts, which can be confusing. var.1 e --------------------------|----------------------------| B --------------------------|----------------------------| G --------------10---9s7s9--|--7----12--10--9--10--9--7--| D --7----9--10--------------|----------------------------| A --------------------------|----------------------------| E --------------------------|----------------------------| var.2 e ------------------------------|----------------------------| B ------------------------------|----------------------------| G --------------10---9s7s9s7s9--|--7----12--10--9--10--9--7--| D --7----9--10------------------|----------------------------| A ------------------------------|----------------------------| E ------------------------------|----------------------------| var.3 e --------------------------|------------------------------------| B --------------------------|------------------------------------| G --------------10---9s7s9--|--7----12--10--9--10--9--7--9-7-9-7-| D --7----9--10--------------|------------------------------------| A --------------------------|------------------------------------| E --------------------------|------------------------------------| var.4 e ------------------------|----------------------------| B ------------------------|----------------------------| G --------------10---9s7--|--7----12--10--9--10--9--7--| D --7----9--10------------|----------------------------| A ------------------------|----------------------------| E ------------------------|----------------------------| var.5 e -------------------------|-----------------------------------| B -------------------------|-----------------------------------| G --------------12--10--9--|--9--10--12--9--10--12--10-9-10-9--| D --7----9--10-------------|-----------------------------------| A -------------------------|-----------------------------------| E -------------------------|-----------------------------------| var.6 e ---------------------------|-----------------------------------| B ---------------------------|-----------------------------------| G --------------10--9s7s9s7--|--7---10s12--12--10-9-10--9--7-9-7-| D --7----9--10---------------|-----------------------------------| A ---------------------------|-----------------------------------| E ---------------------------|-----------------------------------| var.7 e -------------------------|----------------------------------- B -------------------------|----------------------------------- G --------------12--10--9--|--9--10--12--9--10--12--10--9--10-- D --7----9--10-------------|----------------------------------- A -------------------------|----------------------------------- E -------------------------|----------------------------------- (continuation of var.7) e -----------------------------| B -----------------------------| G --9--12s10--14s12--12s10--9--| D -----------------------------| A -----------------------------| E -----------------------------|
