This is one of the two unreleased Smiths tracks that were leaked on a recent vinyl bootleg. It was recorded in December 1984, and seems to share a lot of it's chord DNA with "Heaven Knows".
My friend stereovaritone uploaded a very cool cover here on Marr-spec LP:
Erick Benitez has done a great job picking the song out in this YouTube video:
Erick was kind enough to share his tab, which you can download here. Fixed link as of 3/14/17.
Ouch that's just painful. I know it's unfinished but I can see why it was never released or made into a song. I guess Johnny may well have lifted it with the overdubbed melodies but the underlying tune/rhythm is lacking.
Good work with the website by the way I've been using it for years and it's one of a kind for all us Smiths/Marr fans.
I created this blog to showcase the guitar work of Johnny Marr from the Smiths, and to help those who want to learn his guitar parts or learn more about his gear and production techniques.
I will cover the catalog song by song, using youtube videos from guitarists, chords, tab, and comments from Johnny when they are available. Many of the songs feature many different guitar tracks; often one person will capture something that another will not, so I will be posting everything that I feel helps with the understanding of the overall song, or any part of it. If anyone has anything to contribute, please email me at thom@smithsonguitar.com

What guitar sound accessories are used to build that sound character? What sound effect products are used?
