CRADLE OF FILTH - "Ebony Dressed For Sunset"

tabbed by Nijad (dime@go.com.jo)

This is one of the fastest and in my opinion, one of the best COF songs. 
This first half of the song is basically comprised of a three chord
progression (figure 1). Keyboards usually play this progression but
of course varyingly. Many of these riffs are played by both guitars but 
usually the two guitars play about an octave apart, sometimes even two.

 Riff 1: Should be played by both guitars with sharp, heavy dist - x4.

 Not sure if they should be played by constant fast picking 
 (tremolo picking or single chords because the dist.)
 
 Riff 2: After the fourth time, guitar 2 switches and plays this riff - x4.
 Guitar 1 plays riff 1 rapidly.

 Riff 3a: This riff is basically the riff played by guitar 1 in riff 2, but
 played rapidly and continuously (tremolo picking) on the A string only.
 Played by guitar 1 only.
