* I didn't write this tab. I found it on another website but on CGCFAD, so I fixed it to
DGCFAD because all of Cradle of Filth songs are played in DGCFAD except some songs from
the album "Damnation and a Day", where only "THe Promise of Fever", "Doberman Pharaoah"
and "The Smoke of Her Burning" are played in DGCFAD. All of the others are played in
CGCFAD. I know this information because one of the guitarists from Cradle of Filth told
me. Be sure it's right.
