I'm not sure about this beautiful song, It's just an attempt. Don't know if they use an
tuning.

[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/a/amusement_parks_on_fire/venus_in_cancer_tab.html ]
Play it with lots of gain and trebble to get the 'waving' sound. The strumming pattern
all the chords throughout the song is something like this:
e|---------x---------x-------x----------------------------------------------|
B|---------x---------x-------x----------------------------------------------|
G|---------x---------x-------x----------------------------------------------|
D|--x------x-----x---x---x---x----------------------------------------------|
A|--x------------x-------x--------------------------------------------------|
E|--x------------x-------x--------------------------------------------------|
Lead guitar
Intro/after the first chorus
e|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--/11-11--\9---\6~~--(7)---\4-----x2-----------------------------|
D|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
Outro
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--6--/7--\6--/11--\9-\7--\4-/6--/7--\6--\4--/6--/11--/12--\11--\9----------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Play the tones slowly and hold them for a long time with lots of vibrato, play the last
tones a lot of times.
If the rhytym guitar plays the last chord(5577xx) you slide from the last tone(9) to the
6th fret, and hold it on for a time, like this:
G|---9\--6------------------------|
For the rest of the song, the lead guitar plays, with lots of feedback, the chords, but
only the tones from the D and G snare, so for the A-chord he plays for example:
G|------6--------------------|
D|------7--------------------|
But he does this with some effects and he varries a lot. It's hard to hear and to much work.
Ok, hope I helped you out. If you have comments/questions, or if you know the lyrics (I
find them) just mail me
