Manic Street Preachers - Let Robeson Sing bass tab

Manic Street Preachers: Let Robeson Sing

Standard tuning: E, A, D, G,

Tabbed by mmfan486

Nicky Wire plays something different nearly every time in the verses and

Choruses. I've tabbed the whole lot out in order so there's no point in

putting the order in; just follow the tab to play the whole song.

The notes in brackets are "grace notes," notes played very quickly before

playing the notes indicated in the tab. In context with the bass, these

can be played as hammer-ons, but it is important to remember that the

notes in brackets are the frets you hammer on FROM, not TO. For example,

On the chorus, the 5 would be played first and then very quickly hammered

on to the 7.
