----------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Spider's Lullabye by King Diamond from The Spider's Lullabye Music and Lyrics by King Diamond Tabbed and transcribed by Alex Huerta ( marilion@imparcial.com.mx ) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Legend : p = pull_off \ = Slide down h = hammer_on ... = Repeat the pattern until you reach the note. / = Slide up x2 = Repeat it that time and another one. v = Vibrato rk = Rake ( play the strings one after the other ) Guitar1 = Harpsichord. Guitar2 = Distorted Guitar. Guitar3 = Organ with the 6th string ( the low E ) tuned to C# Guitar4 = Clean guitar. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notes : This is one of the easiest King Diamond songs, IMHO, but it's a good one nevertheless. It can be played by one guitarist and a keyboard player with the keyboard taking the "Solo" and the guitar keeping the rhythm going. The solo is played this way : you go down the string playing a repeating pattern of one note and the other two frets away from the first ( i.e., 19 and 21, 18 and 20, etc. ) until you reach the last note on the tab. It's only and aprox, because it doesn't sound like he ( the one playing the solo :-) is following a scale or something. This is dedicated to Fernanda. Esto es para el Asterix : Oye cabron, mandame un mail!!! se me perdi? tu direcci?n y tengo algunas preguntas que hacerte :-) BTW, el CD llego al chingaso ( que significa muy bien ). Andale, no te hagas del rogar... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- RhyFig1 ( With Guitar1 ) : -------------------------- |---7---6---7---6---7---6---7---6-| |-5---4---5---4---5---4---5---4---| |---------------------------------| |---------------------------------| |---------------------------------| |---------------------------------| End RhyFig1.
