Haunted Shores - Cradle of Filth -Wither (brunor@sggs.wcape.school.za) Ok, as with most Cradle Of Filth songs, the guitar work isn't godly - but timing is everything. My advice is to learn the riffs and then try to play along. I made a small attempt to show timing in the tab, but you should be able to pick it up quite easily. Oh yeah, my stereo's left speaker is keeshed so some filler riffs may be missing, most noticeably the lead riff played over the intro chords. I'll update when it's fixed. Riff 1a: Intro riff. Never played again. |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-5---------------|-----------------|-8---------------|-7---------------| |-5---------------|-----------------|-8---------------|-7---------------| |-3---------------|-----------------|-6---------------|-5---------------| hold hold hold Riff 1b: Also part of the intro.

Get the rhythm right or the song goes all to hell. Up and down, quickly, etc. |-------------------| |-------------------| |-------------------| |-------------------| |-8-8-8-8-6-8-9p8-6-| |-6-6-6-6-6-6-6---6-| Riff 2b: Second bit of the verse.

If you're lucky enough to have a keyboardist handy, no problem. Otherwise try playing Dm, F, C, Gm twice on a clean guitar, then kick the distortion and play the power chords. |-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------| |-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------| |-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------| |-7-----------|-3-----------|-5-----------|-5-----------| |-5-----------|-3-----------|-3-----------|-5-----------| |-5-----------|-1-----------|-3-----------|-3-----------| hold hold hold hold Riff 6a: Guitar two is playing sixteenth notes. Timing for these riffs in the tab is non-existant so listen to the song. Good Luck!
