If You have a 6th string, it'll be still tricky, 'cause it's a D4 slided more than an octave higher. I simply left it out, 'cause yeah, it adds to the atmosphere of the song, but nothing else. And yeah, I could've do it with repeat signs and stuff, but it'd be a mess, 'cause notes are changing not only on end of lines but during them also, so it's clean and clear this way. And also, I didn't split it to verse and chorus and stuff, 'cause this song doesn't really have those, rather an intro plus 8 minutes of variations for a bassline. If You have problems with this tab, write Me a mail what's wrong with it instead of giving it a bad rating! It'd be better for everyone!
