Note:  This isn't exactly what they play during the song, but if you
       haven't got strings or tape loops, this will be ok as an
       imitation of various elements of the song.

Throughout the song:

     1       +       2       +       3       +       4       +
 E -----------------------------------------------------------------|
 B -----------------------------------------------------------------|
 G ------------------7-------------------------------7--------------|
 D -----------------------------------------------------------------|
 A --5-----------------------5---5-------5---5----------------------|
 E -----------------------------------------------------------------|


In the second half of the song, repeat these four bars:

     1       +       2       +       3       +       4       +
 E -----------------------------------------------------------------|
 B -----------------------------------------------------------------|
 G --7-------7---7---7-------7---7-------7---7-------7---7---7---7--|
 D ------------------------------7-------7---7-------7---7---7---7--|

HAUS DER LUEGE                       HOUSE OF LIES
--------------                       -------------
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/e/einsturzende_neubauten/haus_der_luege_tab.html ]
ERSTES GESCHOSS:                     FIRST FLOOR:
HIR LEBEN DIE BLINDEN                HERE LIVE THE BLIND
DIE GLAUBEN WAS SIE SEHEN            WHO BELIEVE WHAT THEY SEE
UND DIE TAUBEN                       AND THE DEAF
DIE GLAUBEN WAS SIE HOEREN           WHO BELEIVE WHAT THEY HEAR
FESTGEBUNDEN AUF EINEM KUECHENHOCKER BOUND AND GAGGED TO KITCHEN-STOOL
SITZT EIN IRRER, DER GLAUBT          SITS A FOOL, WHO BELEIVES
ALLES WAS ER ANFASSEN KANN           IN ALL HE CAN FEEL
(SEINE HAENDE LIEGEN IM SCHOSS)      (HIS HANDS IN HIS LAP)

ZWEITES GESCHOSS:                    SECOND FLOOR:
ROLLE FUER ROLLE                     ROLL AFTER ROLL
BAHN FUER BAHN                       LENGTH AFTER LENGTH
RAUHFASER TAPEZIERT                  IN WOODCHIP WALLPAPER
EINZELNE MIETER STEHEN HERUM         LONE TENANTS STAND AROUND
BETRACHTEN DIE WAENDE AUFMERKSAM     OBSERVING THE WALLS WITH FROWNS
SUCHEN DRUCK- UND                    LOOKING FOR PRINTING AND SPELLING
  RECHTSCHREIBFEHLER                  MISTAKES
KOENNTEN NICHT MAL IHREN NAMEN       THEY COULDN'T EVEN DECIPHER THEIR
                     ENTZIFFERN       OWN NAMES

AUF INS NAECHSTE GESCHOSS:           UP TO THE NEXT FLOOR
WELCHES, OH WUNDER!, NIE             WHICH, OH WONDER! NEVER COMPLETED
                FERTIGGESTELLT
NUR UEBER DIE TREPPE ERREICHT        CAN ONLY BE REACHED BY THE STAIRS
                   WERDEN KANN
  -                                    -

VIERTES GESCHOSS:                    FOURTH FLOOR:
