Tourniquet - Microscopic View of a Telescopic Realm
===================================================


off the album 'Microscopic View of a Telescopic Realm'


tabbed by the bass playing sheep...

Ok well, I haven't seen many Tourniquet tabs, so I thought I'd give it a go.

Yeah, it's not 100%, but I do play bass after all lol:P
and I haven't tabbed the solo, if anyone can help with it, mail me at sheep611@gmail.com

Order of the riffs are at the end

Enjoy!
