Queens Of The Stone Age 3s and 7s bass tab by damaster. My first one. I can't determine
at first because the bass is so drowned by the guitars and vocals, so i listen to the
hero track, and tab it out as good as i can. This tab maybe is slightly different than
the 3's and 7's bass tab you will hear, but there you go.
Tuning: normal eadgbe

I keep going over and over again
To never ending places I've never been
No one's catching on, calling my bluff
The devil made me holier than every man
What you do, say it with a smile boy
