Tabs
The *Complete* Joy Division TAB file """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" From: Johnny Mnemonic (TAB inverted by John Mc Donagh) The lyrics I ftp'd from cs.uwp.edu, I dont know who to give credit to for them. I made some corrections as I thought some of them were wrong. The guitar work was mostly done by (guitar hero) Bob Lagrasse and I did the bass parts. If you disagree with anything or play anything differently, drop me a line as I'd love to hear it. We based these tabs off of the studio albums, we could make a whole other long text file on how they played with (Still and variouse bootlegs). Also, Ian did change some of the lyrics on some of the live performances. Hmm, did I leave out and excuses? :P Tom Chess [email protected]. ------------ Joy Division Ian Curtis : Vocals, guitar Bernard Dicken: Guitar, synth, bass (I have no idea where or when he played bass, but whenever they list the band he is credited with some bass work). Peter Hook : Bass, vocals, guitar (Again, I have no idea where Peter played guitar.) Stephen Morris: Drums Unknown Pleasures: ================= Disorder -------- bass1:D MajorD
