Most people probably know this song as the Tetris theme; reguardless Ozma's
version is a fun and easy heavy rocker to play. This tab represents all my
own work, as I interpret the bassline by ear. Many times it seems like more
than one instrument is playing in the bass range, this is because the song
uses three guitars with high distortion. The bass stays clean, though.

 = a slight slide downward which appears in a few places, keep it subtle.
h = hammer-on
