Knights Of Cydonia Bass

(ver. 3)
Muse
Muse-knights of cydonia
I actually play the guitar, but I know the chords to the song so I transferred the 
notes onto a bass and I think that it’s right.

Intro
G|-----------------------------|
D|-----------------------| X 4-|
A|-----------------------------|
E|--0-2-3-----5-5-7------------|

Verse-play each note in a galloping rhythm. I’m not sure the rhythm or amount times on 
fret is but the fret numbering is all correct so just play as you wish.

    E|-----------------|      E|--0-0-0-0-0-0----|        three times)
 2. ‘no-ones gonna take me alive.’
