Sisters Tab

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

Hey everyone,

If any of you have any burn(sorry)ing requests for tab (bass or guitar) I can attempt to supply it (subject to time constraints).

If anyone knows where I could lay my hands on a decent program to create it with it would be really helpful - although I am prepared to write it as text I'd MUCH rather not if I could avoid it(ditto word-processed stuff etc.)

Very little of what you believe to be true is actually the case.

Sorry.

God, yes!

I've been after the tabs for Temple Of Love for some time.
It would be much appreciated.

Cheers.

Aaah... resources. Should have seen that one - I wasn't sure where to put this. Move it if you wish.

Bass tabs? Well, what do you want???

Here's a quick sketch of adrenochrome's verse pattern if that interests you.

If the link doesn't work, go to http://www.danmansmusic.com
click on the free button, then click the popular song database. Its got 20 sisters songs I think. There might be more at etabs.com too.

I remember trawling for Sisters tabs when i first got the web in 96.

There were wuite a few back then, but mostly just bad ones repeated over and over - If I see "1959" again, and it's the f**king first bar tabbed for guitar I'll scream. I did once find the full thing, but I think it's wrong.

More's fun to play.

and some more chords for suzanne.. their is a lead bit played over the top of this as well, but i cant remember it.. so tough...

all straight 8's

erm, might be a bridge.. might not.. who knows :smile:

anyway following straight on from the chord pattern above, about quater of the way throught the last B chord, stop muting it, and then go into this chord pattern,

-- x8
-3
-2
-0
--
--


-- x8
--
-5
-5
-3
--

-- x8
--
-3
-3
-1
--

-- x3
--
-2
-2
-0
--

-- x5
--
--
-5
-5
-3


play twice, then straigt back into the main chord pattern. simple.

Anyone seen the tab to YCBTO?

Also, does anyone have (or know of) any tabbed sisters solos apart from detonation boulevard.

I want to cover it, but the rest of the band are being very obstructive!!!

I havent forgotten about something fast solo (live) just trying to find something pretty to tab it in... and this forum doesnt use monospaced fonts, which makes it hard. HMMMM can i stick pictures into my posts that would make it easy ?
