Man Of Mystery

by Muse (not currently on an album as of 19/06/07; Cover)

Standard tuning

To my knowledge this was played a few times at various gigs around Europe before being

played partway into the Saturday leg of their Wembley headlining gig. This might not

be exactly how it's played LIVE - it's a recording from a CD in a music magazine.

Enjoy. This is as close as I can work out :) This is how I play it, you can work out

how to play it on other strings if you like.

*I've put the times sectioned as it's not strictly sectioned into verse etc.

The solo continued... Don't play the higher notes in brackets very loudly if at all,

try and make them noticeable in the first bar though at least.
