• Song:

    Always

  • Artist:

    Killswitch Engage

This is my bass tab to the song "Always" by Killswitch Engage, which is on the record 
"Disarm The Descent"
In my opinion, it should be all correct. At Chorus, you could play the notes in eight 
notes or in the way I do.
Have fun learning it!

And please don't forget to rate!
