Call To Arms Bass

(ver. 1)
Angels And Airwaves
Tuning: EADG

Note:
This song has a nice groove and the bass has a lot to do with it, but it's kinda hard to tab that groovy stuff out.
You won't be able to play this song only by reading this tab, you'll need to listen to the song and get a basic idea of what the bass does.
The slides (/ and \) and let-rings (~) are vital (in my opinion), thats why I tabbed them out so squeamishly.
You'll have to figure out for yourself how often to play each note.

UPDATE: After listening to the live version, I know this is a 100% correct. So enjoy!

PS: This is my first tab, so please forgive the probably unconventional writing ;)
