One of my personal favourites from *that* album, before they went all wibbly.
Hmmm. Anyway, I've tabbed it. Yum. For comments, corrections, deceased cows,

Notes
~~~~~
It's been pretty hard to figure out guitar 2 (with my luck there probably isn't
one), so I've put what I can remember from the mix I've heard from "On the Side
of Angels", e.g. riff 7, which that version opens with.
Riff 5 comes in on top of the last bit of 4 (the bit at the end which repeats
twice- it's played on the second of those). I think I'm right in saying that 5
is played by guitar 2. We can only hope.
On riff 6, you can pop in a few hammer-on's if you feel the need. I know I do
sometimes.
Finally, there is "Madame Razor" playing chords throughout the song, and I
think that she/it may mirror the chorus guitar. The chords are more noticeable
on the mixed version, however.
Anyway, swiftly moving on...
Lyrics
~~~~~~
To stand mortified
Deceit can't hide the error inside
The words you say
Don't stand they fall
Amomgst the tangled lies you make
Believe it's true convince yourself
It's me not you
That delivers pain and comes between
Tonight- shame me with the thoughts I am denied
Tonight- shame me, shame me
Or leave me for dead...
It's natural, to feel like this
Remember times when nights are long
I've lost the means to carry on
I think it's time to realise
There's no time left no time at all
So take what's mine I want what's yours
Tonight...

Look's like a severe case of Eldritch Sentence Emulation Blues to me (Hmm
pondered the Doktor).
