In Flames – The Quiet Place (Bass Tab)

Versions (4)

Auto-scroll

Bass TAB in the keys of B♭m and E♭m like the original song, in 4/4 time, tabbed for a 4-string bass in standard EADG tuning. This is my personal interpretation of the bassline.
|--|--|--|--| = 8th note measures (i.e. for 8th notes, half notes, and whole notes).
|-----|-----| = 16th note measures (i.e. 8th note measures zoomed in to allow for spacing 16th notes).
* = The previous note is silenced. x = A muted string is played without pressing any note. m = The marked note is played muted. [Intro - 00:00-00:51] The song starts in the key of B♭m. The bassline come in after three repetitions plus one extra measure (twenty five measures in total).
