Manic Street Preachers - No Surface All Feeling
 Of 1996's 'Everything Must Go'
Tabbed by Custy - Custy@barrysworld.com

Couldn't find a tab for the intro for this anywhere on the net so i decided to
transcribe it myself. Pretty simple stuff, but only really sounds good with 2
guitars and of course a bass. Enjoy :)...

In the intro and chorus the #1 means you play that the first time round repeat to
beggining and replace #1 for #2

Maybe richer maybe wiser,
seems so easy to not go too far,
beg me to stop hate my face I know,
and tell me forever just to go.
Just one thing before I get to sleep,
and nothing here but the stains on my teeth,
no not blood just liquid from you,
I only wish it was the truth

Feel the guilt of a sinner,
feel the cold of a winter.
It was no surface but all feeling,
maybe at the time it felt like dreaming.



-Solo- (

Improvise around the basic chord structure of the song, i don't have the time to tab it.
