Rage Against the Machine - Down Rodeo bass tab
Your rating:
Down Rodeo by Rage Against The Machine tabbed by r.allen.canterbury Notes: I'm pretty certain this tab is *wrong*. But there are some tricky things to figure out...like the high-pitched harmonic sounds I put in. Not sure whether that's guitar or bass. The notes like . mean play a harmonic but make the note short (staccato) so it's sort of a harmonic "click". In general this is how I play it, but I would love to get improvements for it.
