around the second half of verse 2, you can hear the transition between the second and third bar of each line
slide down from the C# note to the G#. from this, it seems like the bass in the recording is probably
in half-step down tuning.
this tab is in standard. you can retune if you really want too, but it should sound fine regardless.
[Intro] bass starts at 0:44
