Okay, several things before you read this tab. I learned the song using a tab
on a different site, which was very good and more accurate than most of the
ones you find. However, it was not on this one and it did have some mistakes
I felt needed to be corrected, though there's a chance the author was using
the original version of the song, where as this is based on the re-release of
The Caitiff Choir which included revised versions of Forever Scorned and the
band's Enjoy The Silence cover.
This is for the lead guitar only, since in most of the harmonizing the other
guitar is still playing the first part anyway.
There is ALOT of tremolo picking.
Also, I hate to do this but for the most part you'll have to figure out how
many times to play the riffs yourself, so don't be fooled by the x3 or
whatever.
KEY:
. palm mute
h hammer-on
p pull-off
* pinch harmonic
