A Life Of Illusion Bass Tab by Joe Walsh

A Life Of Illusion bass tab by Joe Walsh

Bass Tab

Standard tuning (EADG)

NOTE: The bass at times becomes muddied due to the
layered guitars (I counted at least three guitars, one of
which plays nothing but galloping, muted plucks) and some
kind of flanging effect (or maybe it's a moog, I'm not sure).


🏷Legend:
r = rest
vf = volume fade (appears above bar)
vo = volume out (appears above bar)


INTRO (x2):
