HIM - When Love And Death Embrace
Album - Greatest Love Songs Vol. 666
Tabbed by Tim
Standard Tuning
Composed by Ville Valo.
Most of the other TAB was in chords, and didn't include the picking in one of the last
choruses. So here's the Tab-ified version. Well done to whoever did the previous version
though, I stole the solo from him.

Interlude
I couldn't transcribe what's in this bit, but just playing an opn G major chord with a
clean tone sounds OK to me.
Open G -
