06. Invincible
=============================================================================
This tab is very similar to TJ1991's tab because I also retune only one
string to play this song, but my tab have some differences. Tune Your D
to C and check this out. If You don't want to play like this then skip this
tab and watch for it somewhere else. I heard that Chris plays it with FCFC
tuning but I don't know anything about it and actually I don't want to
because that means that I need to retune all 4 strings instead of one.

Note: This is Grand Omega Bosses Edit version. Both versions have intro on
bass but it's a little bit tricky because Chris used for this song Fender
American Deluxe 5 string bass with guitar string tuned A. However I didn't
add that string because I don't really know which notes Chris play on that
string (maybe he didn't play them at all). First I thought that it's a D
string but read in Musewiki that this was A string.
