Nine Inch Nails The Day The Whole World Went Away, Bass Tab

Intro and Verse

G|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-----------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-5|

There's the bass part. The guitar part is just X466XXX, X244XXX, 022XXX,

244XXX, and 577XXX in that order in time with the bass. Keep a light

distortion on it, and turn the mid and high down low. If you want to perfrom

this and you only have a guitar, a bass, and a drum set (shame on you for

trying to cover NIN with no keyboard and only one guitar) the bass will have

to play the part that harmonizes with the voices going nah nah na na..etc.

here is that part:

G|------------------------|
D|--------9--8-9-8--------|
A|-9--7--------------11---|
E|------------------------|

In order to play this part right, just a little distrotion, and keep in time

with the voices. IT is a really easy song to play. Just play the first part

untill your fingers bleed, then the second part after the interlude. Just

listen to the CD or the Single and you'll pick it up. Trust me.
