'Love Torn Us Under' by Manic Street Preachers
---------------------------------------------------
from the B side of the 1994 single She is Suffering
Tab by James Glover (Sebadonut)
Standard Tuning
Notes - Some of the fingering shapes are a bit unusual so consider the chord names are a rough guide. Watch
out for the timing in the verses. Also, there is a slight variation at the end of the 2nd and 4th bars of the
second verse - everything is tabbed out.

[Outro/Solo]
The lead solo is very loose and has a 'one take and its done' feel - quite unusual for a
James Dean Bradfield guitar part. If you prefer, you can play the chords instead.
