Down To My Last Bass Tab

   
Alter Bridge - "Down to my Last"
From "One Day Remains" Album
5-string bass tuned Bb Eb Ab Db Gb
Tabbed by jjhand

I tabbed this song for 5 string, since Brian plays all parts on a 5-string,
but you could adjust the notes to a C-tuned 4-string if needed. Please rate 
or comment.
