We have an official Coil tab made by UG professional guitarists.
Check out the tab
Note:
I highly recommend that you play this using finger-picking.
I have not indicated the rhythm anywhere and the spacing between notes on this
tab is just arbitaty, please figure out the rhythm for yourself, it's not
hard.
 
Feel free to critise, but be constructive and say why you think it's wrong.

"For nothing..."
 
Repeat this riff as necessary

Let the open A ring slightly before restarting the above riff
 
 
[Part C]
 
"And I can see you, running through the fields of sorrow..." -
I think the 1st part of this is wrong!

1st time round you play this:
 
The Hammer on/pull of bit is a triplet
 
e|-------------------------------------------|------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------|------------------------------|
G|----7---6-7/9---12--/14---12-11h12p11-9----|6-7/9----7-6---4---7---6-----6|

A|0-------------0----0----0------------------|0------0-----0---0---0---0----|
E|-------------------------------------------|------------------------------|
 
Go back to the beginning of Part C
 
2nd time round go back to Part B.
