Scorched Earth Erotica Chords & Tabs
Scorched Earth Erotica Tab
Cradle of Filth - Scorched Earth Erotica
Track 10 from the album "Bitter Suites to Succubi"
Tabbed by Ken Hoffmeyer (TheOldMansChild@aol.com)
Okay guys, this is just to let you all know that there IS somebody out here
workin on this song! It's VERY VERY incomplete, but I intend to tab out
both guitar parts for the entire song. I will finish this as soon as possible
and upload the completed version when I'm done. Gian's parts (the rhythm guitar) will be VERY hard to tab because they are hard to hear and are usually very quiet (The Intro comes to mind). Also, some of Paul's parts may be more
complicated than what I have written based on watching the video, although
I personally don't hear anything else. I'll have a friend listen and try
to figure it out.

Okay, enough for now...the rest will come in time and I will fill in all
those damn holes in Gian's parts! It's just too far in the background!
