Fields of The Nephilim - Love Under Will guitar tab
#
From: M.T.Billington@MCS.Salford.ac.uk (Mad Marcus B)
Once again it's another difficult-to-hear song. Hmmm. I think what I've done
for this sounds as close as I can get to the real thing (once again from the
"the Nephilim" album). I play the clean sound with a bit of chorus, and I put
some delay into the distortion as well.

Notes
~~~~~
There seems very little point in typing out the order in which you play the
riffs. Riffs 3 and 4 take over from the others about halfway through the song,
where Carl sings :"Hey, raise me... someone's gonna suffer".
The last quarter of riff 4 (with all the 5's and 7's) alters throughout the
last two minutes or so of the song. The only notes that change are those on
the top e string, and they play orders like: 5 7 7; 5 7 8; and basically just
rearrangements of those notes in different orders. The one I have written in
riff 4 seems to be the one played most frequently (it is also the first one
the play).
Riff 3 is in time with the chord changes, and the last power chord holds out
for the duration of two chord changes of the other guitar :(if you see what I
mean :(sort of :(wibble:):):).
Incidentally, if you prefer, you can play it using barre chords, on the 7th,
5th, 3rd and 2nd frets using an A minor shape but without the note on the G
string (no sad jokes please), but in my opinon it doesn't sound nearly as
good, as you lose that "twangy" sound. Incidentally, I'm crap at chord names,
as you may have guessed.
Swiftly moving on...
Lyrics (from John McDonagh's archive)
~~~~~~
I need to be alone tonight
Smother me or suffer
Lay down I'll die tonight
Smother me or suffer
When I'm gone, wait here
Discover all of life's surprises
When I'm gone wait here
I'll send my child my last good smile
If you pass through my soul tonight
Gather all his troubles
Tomorrow's long eternal night
Gather for tomorrow
When I'm gone wait here
Discovers all of earth's surprises
When I'm gone wait here
I'll send my child my last good smile
Chorus: Between the cracks and hollows -
the earth is good,the earth is good
Between the cracks and hollows -
the earth is good,the earth is good
Lay down, lay down, lay down for me
Lay down, lay down, lay down with me
When I'm gone wait here
Discover all of lifes surprises
When i'am gone wait here
I'll send my child my last good bye
Chorus:
Hey embrace me, someone's gonna suffer
Lay lay lay it on lay lay lay it on me
Someone
Hey embrace me someone's gonna suffer {Repeat to fade}
Sweet dreams my Angel
At last good bye
Sweet Dreams
