Biografía:
The Sister Of Mercy es una de las bandas más reconocidas y que destaca muy por encima de la segunda oleada de rock gótico. El grupo tomó el nombre de una canción del cantautor Leonard Cohen; se formaron en Leeds, Inglaterra, en 1980 de la mano de Andrew Eldritch (voz, nacido como Andrew Taylor) y Gary Marx (guitarra, nacido como Mark Pairman) con la ayuda de una caja de ritmos, la mítica Doktor Avalanche.

When the water come rushing, rushing in
[At this part, I just kind of mess around with an A minor picking/solo bit over the basic E===G=D
progression. Maybe someone else can shed some light on this part? Or fuck it make it your own.
You don't owe Eldritch shit.Except for the majesty that is this song. I love you a lot Andrew Eldritch!]

[Play the main riff for the outro/solo. Just improv over the basic chord progression.
This is a place where I really let the harmonics ring. Here's the basic progression again.
Just have fun with it. Play above the 12th fret, kick in weird effects (reverb, phasers, crazy wah pedals,
whatever you're feeling. Go out with a bang)
