Cradle Of Filth - The Forest Whispers My Name Tab

1. Note that there may be mistakes, and I may play some parts differently
   from others. All corrections and suggestions are welcome.

2. As always with Cradle of Filth songs, there are keyboard intros

and interludes. I have tried my best to capture the original

sound with the guitar. ~: Vibrato h: Hammer on p: Pulling off s: Slide t: Trill m: Palm mute ph: picking harmonics 4. For those parts played more than once, please listen to the song itself. It should be simple to figure out how many times you need to play the part. And it goes the same for the case when the guitar plays thrills. Tune down 1 step, so the sixth string becomes D.

Figure A: Keyboard intro - it's likely there may be mistakes here...

Figure F: "The forest whispers my name..." Is that a coincidence or what? The "F" part... I really like playing single notes on low strings because it sounds warmer and thicker, but if you prefer playing on high strings, that's fine, too.
