Tune Bass to (C,F,Bb,Eb)
Ok, this song is another great one, but it is a little odd on the bass.
It goes from some parts being really basic, and then it gets kinda
complicated at times. As usual, this is close to the recording, with a
few personal touches.
Riff A (First heavy riff, main riff. I really dont think the bass is playing during the acoustic intro, but if it is, its just going to be 7's and 5's on the Bb string) |--------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------| |-----3-----3--------------------------------------------------| |--5-----5-----0--0--0--3--3--3--------------------------------| Riff B.1 (ok, this is actually how the bass is on the album, however I find it really dull to play, and I play the melody line the guitars play, transposed for bass. Either one fits, play what you like more.) |--------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------| |-----------------------5--------------------------------------| |--1--5--1--5--1--5--3-----------------------------------------| Riff B.2 (This is the slightly complicated part I was talking about, and what I play as opposed to Riff B.1) |--------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------| |--3--2-----------------3--3/5---------------------------------| |--------5--3--0--0--1----------5------------------------------| Riff B.2 continued |--------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------| |--------2--3--2--------------5--3--2--------------------------| |--0--5-----------5--3--0--3-----------5--3--3/5--5------------| Riff C (Chorus, "I'm the moonshield...) |--------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------| |--7--7--7--5--7--7--7-----------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------|
From here, go right back into the main riff, there is no pause, the
next note is the 5th fret C string of the main riff.
Riff D.1 (at 2:57) |--------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------| |--5--5--------------------------------------------------------| |--------0--0--1--1--3-----------------------------------------| Riff D.2 (at 2:42) |--------------------------------------------------------------| |-----------------------------8--------------------------------| |--3--3--5--5--6--3--3--5--5--6--------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------| Riff E (During the acoustic solo) |--------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------7-----------------------------------------| |--7--7--5--5--7--8-----7--5--5--5--3--5--7--------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------| Riff E cont. (the second time you play this) |--------------------------------------------------------------| |-----------------------7--------------------------------------| |--5--7--7--5--5--7--8-----7--7--5--3--2--5--3-----------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------|
Thats pretty much it, there are alot of repeating parts. As usual, listen
to the song for the order, its pretty self-explanatory. Once again, if
you need Metallica, new Anthrax, Overkill, or Life of Agony tabs, drop
me a line. Comments and questions are encouraged.
