**Padrino's Bass Tab Exclusive!**
There is not much bass in this song. During all the long parts with just
drums and guitar screech noises, the bass player sometimes hits a random note.
Its usually open E or A. When the vocals/rhythm guitar come in every now and
then, you play one of these two riffs, they change on and off.
Riff 1:
G|----------||----------||----------|
D|----------||----------||----4-----|
A|-5--4--2--||-5--4--2--||-5-----2--|
E|----------||----------||----------|
Riff 2:
G|---5---5---4---4----|
D|--------------------|
A|-3---3---2---2---0~-|
E|--------------------|
The live version of this song (the only one I've heard) sounds like it has
a distorted bass, and maybe another affect only used in some spots.
