This is in standard tuning and it actually isnt very hard when you compare it
to the usual AAF bass lines. Just practice the speed and you should have no
problem with it. A blast to play live!! I tabbed it for a 5 string since it's
MUCH easier than playing it in dropped-D. TRUST ME. You can go ahead and try
it in dropped-D, but playing the verse gets rather difficult and you have to
reach a LOT farther. I recomend you just keep it in standard and if you don't
have a 5-string that you just bump the low D up an octave. Enjoy!

Please realize that if you request a song for me to tab out that the odds of
me tabbing it are not so high, consittering it takes a good deal of time.
But feel free to ask anyway! I'll still try my best.
