Lucretia My Reflection

Black Light Burns

Text File

Song: Lucretia My Reflection (Sisters Of Mercy Cover)
Artist: Black Light Burns
Album: Cover Your Heart And The Anvil Pants Odyssey (2008)

Tuning: (low) C# F# B E G# C# (high)

If you'd like to play this song in E Standard tuning, just subtract
3 from every number in this tablature and you're good to go.

Sound: Listen to the song and play around with your reverb and delay
settings. Use humbuckers and try bending notes randomly from time to time,
that's the way Wes plays most of his clean parts.
Another important thing for playing this song is timing, so take your time
listening to the song very closely.

*Play those 10s as many times as you want - just play it on a gut level. You
can do that with many other notes in this song aswell, so feel free to alter
the amount of the recommended ones.

Instead of the 20s on the E string you can also play 16s on the G# string.

This part is kind of tough.
Listen to the song closely because timing is very important when playing these notes.

C#---------------16-18--18-16-----------------------------------------------|
G#-----17-18-20----------------20-18-17~------------------------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

I am pretty sure that the part above is correct.
Sometimes it sounds like there is more going on but I can tell you that it's
a synthesizer in the background. However, feel free to send me comments or corrections.
