Apart-The Cure
Main riff:
(with flanger and slow echo)
(let ring for another measure)
E-------------------------------|
B-------------------------------|
G-----------2---0h2-------------|
D-------------------------------|
A-------0-----------------------|
E---5---------------------------|
Repeat this constantly (i.e., every other measure)
Synth line adapted for guitar:
One measure each of a swell on the following chords:
Am--221-
G --000-
Dm--323-
Am (same)
then this riff
B----5---5---5---6---------5--|-------3-------5--------3------|
B-------------3------5--------|-------------------------------|
G----5------------------------|--------5----------------------|
At the end of the first verse play the following fill (mixed low)
Dm---312 (four measures)
(strum pattern is easy enough to figure out; precision isn't important here
anyway. Vary it a bit by not sounding all three notes; also, in the fourth
measure play a slide up to the 5th fret of the high E string)
Repeat, but play this for fourth measure:
E (high)------3/5---5-----5-----5
In second verse, play this fill at the line "He waits to hear her say 'forget'"
(let ring throughout)
E----------0---------------|------------3------------|
B----3--------3------3-----|------3--------3-----3---|
G-2-----2---------2-----2--|--0------0--------0----0-|
Then repeat first measure twice. Repeat.
Play this fill underneath chorus
(you do not play the main riff here)
(Second measure of fill above), then:
(let ring throughout)
