Muse - Time Is Running Out Complete Chords & Tabs

Song: Time is Running Out (complete)
Aritist: MUSE
Tabbed By: Tom Leech (blokeyman@hotmail.com)


There are no correct tabs that I could find for this song. Not surprising really, but seeing as I have had to
work this song out completely and correctly for a friends Music Technology, and have created a Guitar Pro file of
it, I thought I might as well submit the correct guitar tab.
I have a program which allows the vocal to be removed from a song, not brilliantly, but it does work. Unfortunately,
it sometimes removes other things from the song. When I ran it through Time is Running Out, it removed the vocal and
the bass, leaving me with just the drums and guitar. This meant I could hear much more clearly what was being played
and this allowed me to work out the song.
I also watched several live performances of this song to see where Matt played each bit, to further increase the accuracy
of the tab. This tab is, if not 100% accurate, is as close as not to matter. In the bridge, he plays a slight
variation of the rhythmn each bar, which I didnt feel to be necesary to tab.
I am also submitting a complete bass tab for this song.

Enjoy :)
