"She's In Parties" by Bauhaus, from the album _Burning On the Inside_

i looked for this song on OLGA, and to my dismay, found it not. so, i was

forced to figure it out, and thought i'd share the fruits of my efforts

w/y'all.

first off, i tabbed this on the top two strings, though i think it's actually

played on the 2nd and 3rd strings. but it's more readable this way. the

spaces between notes are only vaguely related to the timing.

G---99999\----55777--------------------------

D-7---------3------5-------------------------

A--------------------------------------------

E--------------------------------------------

this, of course, is the verse/chorus riff. there are some variations

throughout the song, and he seems to play a fill at the end of verses and

choruses. but there's no way in hell i'm going to tab all those out.

next (i think) is this part. i'm not sure what to call it. bridge is fine,

i suppose.

G---------------------------------------------

D---------------------------------------------

A-77777777777777775555555533332222------------

E---------------------------------------------

i think that's how it goes. it might be played an octave up.

and finally, the interlude/outro part.

G---------------------------------------------

D---------------------------------------------

A----3753-5555--------------------------------

E-5-5---------3333----------------------------

that's how it's played in the outro. it might be an octave higher in the

interlude. also, at a couple points the bass leaves half of it out. just

listen to the recording. the first note of either half is omitted sometimes

as well.

anyhow, that's the bassline, more or less. as for the guitar, it's all weird

textural stuff that i can't figure out. i think i heard these two chords at

certain points:

e 5 e 8

B 5 B 10

G 5 G 10

D X D X

A X A X

E X E X

it's very weird. just make some noise in A minor w/a wah pedal and it

should sound alright.

well, there it is. my first real tab. enjoy.
