Tool - Lateralis Ver 3 bass tab
Your rating:
Song: Lateralis Band: Tool Album: Lateralus Tabbed by: Jon Gluff Tuning (low to high): DADG ( like every other Tool song except Prison Sex ) I was looking around MX Tabs here and I didn’t see any tabs that were very close to how Justin plays this, so I decided to tab it. It’s only my second tab, but it’s pretty darn close to perfect, so if you’ll take the time to actually listen to the song I think you’ll see that it’s right. Intro ( fade in after Adam plays through the entire riff once ): G|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
