Album - Dosage
Tabbed by - Alec MacDonald

Allright cause the riff that the lead guitar plays during the verse is so amazing I decided to tab that out for bass
too even though it ain't actually playing that. Then i decided just to tab the song as I play it cause i have more fun
doing it my way. So the first part is the real song, then i tabbed it out again as i play it - maybe you'll have more
fun too...who knows.

***REAL SONG BEGINS***

Guitar plays a bit then bass.
