"Gimme Shelter" by The Sisters of Mercy (from the album "Some Girls Wander by Mistake") ======================================================================================= transcribed by jonas-ol@dsv.su.se please note: gimme shelter on the 'temple of love' 12" (and (sgwbm) was probably recorded with the bass & guitars tuned slightly up/down (delete as applicable) form normal tuning. i didn't bother tuning my guitar when i transcribed it so there are probably more errors than normal in this one.
