'She Is Suffering' by Manic Street Preachers - Guitar Tutorial
Song lyrics:
Manic Street Preachers - She Is Suffering From The Holy Bible (Music Bradfield/Moore, lyrics James/Wire) Guitarists - James Dean Bradfield (lead, Les Paul Custom with hi gain distortion, in treble position for the solo), Richey James (rhythm, I think it's a tele but I can't be sure.) INTRO/VERSE a fairly simple pattern of going up and down the chords. The A/Am bit can be done in open position (X02220/X02210) if you feel more comfortable with that. It is lightly palm muted, but you don't really have to do that. Em Em/Eb A Am E|----------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|-----------8-----------------8----------------------------------------------| G|-------9-----9-----------9-----9---------------6-----------------5----------| D|-----9---9-----9-------9---9-----9---------7-----7-----------7-----7--------| A|---7-------------7---6-------------6-----7---7-----7-------7---7-----7------| E|---------------------------------------5-------------5---5-------------5----| G B Em She is suffering G B A5 She sucks you deeper in G B Em She is suffering G B A5 You exist within her shadow Those make up pretty much the whole song. SOLO, this bit's pretty odd to be honest, and this is just an interpretation that sounds similar to me. I'm not really one to play the exact solo, but this is pretty much what I do. The bends are up about half a semitone, not enough to go to the next fret. What I do is the first bit as it's written here, then mainly impro the next bit on those notes and a few others from the Em pentatonic. End on that high E though.

Great song from a good album that I picked up last week. I still prefer Generation Terrorists though. Tabbed by Whill, comments to infectedwill AT hotmail DOT com
