Song: 'DES' (New Song I) Artist: Muse Album: N/A (Live recordings only - Earl's Court 20/12/04; Live at The Drink) Guitarist: Matt Bellamy Tabbed by: OctoberDistrict [James Godding (Mc8ain@hotmail.com)] This is a very accurate tab, save for the randome ffects Matt uses after the first chorus. I was at the Earl's Court concert where one of the recordings was taken and saw him play it.
