Rage Against The Machine - Down Rodeo bass tab
Down Rodeo by Rage Against The Machine
tabbed by r.allen.canterbury
Notes: I'm pretty certain this tab is *wrong*. But there are some tricky
things to figure out...like the high-pitched harmonic sounds I put in. Not
sure whether that's guitar or bass. The notes like . mean play a harmonic
but make the note short (staccato) so it's sort of a harmonic "click". In
general this is how I play it, but I would love to get improvements for it.
