Manic Street Preachers - She Bathed Herself in a Bath of Bleach
Journal for Plague Lovers (2009)

Intro/Verse:
^this part is actually just a barre F#m chord, but this
sounds better when playing
with just a guitar
Chorus:
[E5]Empty a[B5]rms and a[D5]n aching [A5]heart...
Solo:
(Main riff)
(Main Riff)
[E5] [B5]
[F#5]
bracketed notes are just the ones JDB uses for that grimey feel
but the solo can be played without em
[E5] [B5] [F#5]
^this part has a deceptively tricky rhythm, listen to the song.
note for beginners: bar the E and B strings
with your index, bend the G with your ring and middle, and get the 12 on B with your pinky.
^ this last bit is the only part i'm not sure about, but it sounds about right.
enjoy
