Awake Bass Tab by Godsmack

Awake bass tab by Godsmack

Bass Tab 

D tuning, Drop C (CGCF)

PERFORMANCE NOTE: The time signature of the first bar in each Pre-Verse is about
a 16th longer than standard 4/4.  I had no idea how to write that so I left it as
a standard eight count.

🏷Legend:
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
r = rest
() = sustained note; after a slide, the note slid to
s = 16th note (appears above bar)
