Anberlin - Alexithymia Bass

above.


Tuning: C#, A, D, G
(It is much easier playing it on a 5-string with the additional B-string but this is the
to play it on a 4-string with only the E-string being detuned.  You only need to detune
down to a C# to play the low note during the “break” and “bridge”.  Otherwise, you can 
tune it down to D and hit the C# an octave higher.)
[Key for this tab]
“#’s on top” = beat of the measure
~ = let it ring

[Spacing]
One “-“ = 16th beat
 1...2...3...4...
