PLACEBO:LADY OF THE FLOWERS: Use normal tunning throughout the song.
The beginning isn't note perfect but is very close to the original.
Beginning:
G----------17--18--17-------------17--18--17----------
D------15-----------------------15--------------------8---
A--16-----------------------16-----------------------------
E-------------------------------------------------------6----
G--18 let ring..---17--------------17--18--17-----------
D--15 let ring..----------------15-------------------8-----
A--13 let ring..-----------16-------------------------------
E------------------------------------------------------6-----
Verse:
G--18--17-------------17--18--17-------------
D-------------------15-------------------8------
A---------------16------------------------------
E-----------------------------------------6------
Scuse me, I must etc......
Keep repeating the verse until the guy stops speaking and start the
part below just before Brian starts singing and also when he is
singing.
Pre-Chorus:
G--------------------------------------------------------------------
D--------------------------------------------------------------------
A--------------------------------------------------------------------
E--2--2---2--2---2-2-2--/--6 let ring........--6--6---6---6-6-6-
On the last time round before the guy starts speaking again and when
Brian sings " Into her hypnotic gaze", play;
G--------------------------------------------------------------------
D--------------------------------------------------------------------
A--------------------------------------------------------------------
E--2--2---2--2---2-2--/--12---6 let ring....----------------------
Next play the beginning bit until the guy stops speaking and then
play the pre-chorus and the bit above when the pre chorus ends. After
this it gets heavier/rockier (whatever....).
Chorus 1:
G--------------------------------------------------------------------

G--------------------------------------------------------------------
D--------------------------------------------------------------------
A--9-9--9-9--9-9-9------------------------------------------------
E-----------------------6 let ring...--------------------------------
Next part is where the guy speaks again so just simply play the
beginnning part again. After this play the pre-chorus until Brian
finishes singing " In her electronic haze ". go into chours type 2
after that.
Chorus ( Type 2 ):
G--------------------------------------------------------------------

E--9--9-9--9--9-9-9-----------------------------------------------
G--------------------------------------------------------------------
D--------------------------------------------------------------------
A--9-9--9-9--9-9-9--------------------------------------9-9--9-9
E-----------------------9--9--9--9--9-9-9--/--16-16-------------
G--------------------------------------------------------------------
D--------------------------------------------------------------------
A--9-9-9---8--8-8--8--8-8-8---9-9--9-9--9-9-9----------------
E-------------------------------------------------------9-9--9-9---
G--------------------------------------------------------------------
D--------------------------------------------------------------------
A-----------------------9-9--9-9--9-9-9---8--8-8--8--8-8-8---
E--9-9-9--/--16-16------------------------------------------------
G--------------------------------------------------------------------
D-----------------------8--8---15--15---11--11------------------
A--9-9--9-9--9-9-9------------------------------------------------
E--------------------------------------------------------------------
After that rather short chorus type 2, repeat the beginning until the
song stops ( listen to how many times Stef plays it to get it right
). During the parts where the guy speaks I said use the beginning,
using the verse which I wrote works just as well so don't get muddled
on that part. Have fun!
