Tool You Lied bass tab

You Lied by Tool

Artist: Tool

Tabbed by: Joel Stillwell ([email protected])

Before any of ya'll read this, I want you all to know this is my first
tab ever.  I've been listening to Tool for forever, and I've been
playing bass for about a year and a half.  *takes breath*  Anyway, on
to the tab...

Tuning (low to high):DADG
Play with a pick, and use a lot of highs.

Intro:  (Use some type of chorus all the way through.  I read that
Justin uses a Boss pedal, but I don't know which one.  Listen to the song
for the rhythm.)
