Tabbed by Jeffrey Swing/Christopher Preston
Right after the drum intro, Les turns on some tone and crunch filled
distortion (Anybody know what kind of pedal he uses? I think it's his good
'ol ADA $600+ pre amp) and strums all open strings. With them ringing, he
uses his whammy bar, which I haven't found a way to duplicate this on a
non whammy bass, because he uses all four strings to equal decibal
proportion.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official PRIMUS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
