Artificial Harmonic m Palm Muted // Trem Pick (Pick as fast as possible) ============================== Gtr. 1 = Clean Electric (w/Delay) Gtr. 2 = Distorted Electric Gtr. 3 = Distorted Electric It was quite hard to tab this song as there's bits and bobs floating about throughout the song. I know I have missed some parts out but these were too quiet for me to make out. There is 14 seconds of solo missing from a bit that was too difficult for me to make out. Have fun! ============================== Intro (Gtr. 1) ===== |-------------x4--------------|--------------x4-------------| e|-----------------------------|-----------------------------|

E|-1-3-----3-----3---3-----3---|-6-8-----8-----8---8-----8---| The mascara'd blonde from the Berliner bar Rises at twilight, gets dressed in a daze Black leather crackles and cold water runs As she touches the walls of memory maze And the shadows of men she has known fill her day She's held half the world in her arms so they say But she wakes up without them with a hole in her heart And she puts on her clothes lives her life behind bars Sax Solo 1 ========== e|--------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------------| G|------10------9---------------9-------| x4

E|---------------------------------| Someone got stranded in no man's land Dancing in the spotlight to the sound of clapping hands Nobody knows who's side he was on It's a risk that you take in no man's land Nobody knows what made him decide To run for freedom and to certain suicide When they turn off the guns and his fingers uncurl He's clutching a photograph of a Berlin party girl Interlude

E|---------------------------------|-------------------------------------------| You mad dog shaven head bottle-boy freaks In Martens and khaki, drunk on sake You stare at yourself in the cruel flush of dawn Terrified, sunken eyed, withered and drawn The butcher, the baker, the munitions maker The over-achiever, the armistice breaker The freebase instructor, the lightning conductor The psycho, the sailor, the tanker, the tailor The black market mailer The quick and the dead The spotlight dancer The quick and the dead The quick and the dead And the quick and the dead (solo enters here) We wake up without you With a hole in our hearts The mascara'd blonde from the Berliner bar Rises at twilight, gets dressed in a daze Outro Solo (Guitar 3) ========== \3./
