Artist: The Mars Volta
Song: Wax Simulacra (Single)
Album: The Bedlam of Goliath
Tuning: Standard (EADG)
Tabbed By: Nathan Zwiener

It's not like me to make bass tabs, but this song is mixed much differently than
Mars Volta songs and I can't hear the guitar for about 90% of the song. But hey, the 
part
this song is very important, and cool.

This is probably the most powerful, kick-ass Mars Volta song out there. Sure there's
kick-ass Mars Volta songs but they have cooldowns and quiet interludes. Those are great,
Wax Simulacra just plows its way through 2 minutes and 41 seconds like tissue paper. I 
you enjoy this tab as much as I liked listening to this song. :)

The rhythm is dotted quarter notes switching pitch every measure, assuming the song's in
But it's easy to play by feel. So I didn't write the rhythm here. After the tilded note
for 2 measures), the rhythm goes to quarter notes with the drums.
