Band: Muse
Song: Falling Away With You
Album: Absolution (2003)
Bassist: Chris Wolstenholme
Tuning: Standard
Thanks to UG user "Jasonbts" for his comment. That attracted my attention
and I re-listened song and now I'm sure that there's bass line. Verse parts
are very quiet and hard to hear but if will listen closely to the song
You'll hear these parts. I think that Chris used acoustic bass for verses.
This will be confusing because there are 4 bars with a little
differences. I tried to "catch" every note so there may be mistakes.
If it's needless for You to remember all these 4 bars then take one and
play for verse.
Verse: (No matter which bass You will use for verse play it very quiet)
