This part is great once you've learned to play it well.It can be
played on guitar a well as bass: it both sounds cool.
In the song it is played on a guitar.
I am practically sure this is a correct version.
Tune E down to D
Note: Listen to the song to get the timing right
(I didn't include timing, but it's rather simple)

Its played on a 5 string bass actually.
and this is a bass tab not a guitar!
This tab is very wrong, it sounds much better played two octaves up and a few of the passing tones are awkward. The tab
I used when learning it was taken from one of the guitar pro tabs on this site, and is perfect.
