Mother Of Violence tab by Peter Gabriel

Guitar Tab

Song:Mother of violence
Artist:Peter Gabriel
Album:Peter Gabriel II
Transcribed by: Andrea Baroncini (a.baro@tiscali.it)

Note:This transcription in far from being exact,
     it's only my own interpretation for acoustic guitar
     of the song.

     This work is dedicated to my daughter Laura,
     lamb for whom time had not a fold.
