Love at First Sight

Styx
Bass Tab

This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Song

Song: LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT (bass tab)

Band: STYX

Tabbed by: FER MADRID

Time signature: 4/4

Note: I think Chuck Panozzo plays a 5 string bass on this track, but

i decided to tab this song for a 4 string bass.
