----------------------------------------------------------------------------- God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen - Dio (BASS ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Scotto10 **Important note: I didn't realize until I was almost finished that it was actually played on a 5 string bass. There were a last few notes that I found could not be played in Drop Db so it has to be a 5 string.I didn't feel like doing the whole thing over again so I am submitting it as a 4 string in drop Db. Normally, I don't see a drop D tuning AND a fifth string so I assumed it to be a 4 string until the very end. It's ok though, because I'm sure most people do not have a 5 string bass so this is for the masses and still sounds fine. submitted Jun 19 2021 ============================================================================= Bass [Intro]
