Russians Bass Tab by Sting

Russians bass tab by Sting

Bass Tab

NOTE: There is no actual bass guitar in this song.  Instead, I've transcribed
the synthesizer to bass.  However, while the staffs below show the standard
EADG, to play it properly on bass you'll need to adjust the tone down 1/4 step
(halfway between standard E and Eb).
