Track: The Forest Whispers My Name Artist: Cradle of Filth Transcribed: Nocturnal Heartbeat (ghostwhowalks@lightspeed.bc.ca) 1. Note that there may be mistakes, and I may play some parts differently from others. All corrections and suggestions are welcome. 2. As always with Cradle of Filth songs, there are keyboard intros and interludes. I have tried my best to capture the original sound with the guitar. 3. All the symbols used in this tablature: ~: Vibrato h: Hammer on p: Pulling off s: Slide t: Trill m: Palm mute ph: picking harmonics 4. For those parts played more than once, please listen to the song itself. It should be simple to figure out how many times you need to play the part. And it goes the same for the case when the guitar plays thrills. Tune down 1 step, so the sixth string becomes D. Figure A: Keyboard intro - it's likely there may be mistakes here... ---------12---------12---------12---------12---------12-----10------------ -----12-----12---------12---------12---------12--------------------------- --9-------------9----------9----------9----------9------9------9---------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Figure B: Intro riff. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------8---------------------------------------------------------------- --2--5m--6--2m--2m--2m---------------------------------------------------- --0--3m-----0m--0m--0m--0m--0m--2m--2m--0m--0m---------------------------- ----------------------------------/--------------------------------------- ----------------------------------/--------------------------------------- ----------------------------------/--------------------------------------- ---------8------------------2ph---/--------------------------------------- --2--5m--6--2m--2m--2m--2m--------/---2----------------------------------- --0--3m-----0m--0m--0m--0m--------/---0----------------------------------- Figure C: Main riff. ------------------------------/-------------/----------------------------- ------------------------------/-------------/----------------------------- ------------------------------/-------------/----------------------------- --3p2p0-----------------------/-------------/----------------------------- ---------3p2p0----------------/-------------/----------------------------- ----------------3p2p1--2p1p0--/--00000000---/--3333--1111----------------- / palm mute / palm mute Figure D: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------5--5--5--4--4--4---------5--5--5--4s5----------------------------- --2--2--3--3--3--2--2--2---3--3--3--3--3--2s3--3-------------------------- --0--0---------------------1--1----------------1-------------------------- Figure E: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- --5s7~--5s7--8~--8--7~--7--6~--------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Figure F: "The forest whispers my name..." Is that a coincidence or what? The "F" part... I really like playing single notes on low strings because it sounds warmer and thicker, but if you prefer playing on high strings, that's fine, too.
