Living On My Own
PART 1: Track by Freddie Mercury taken from his 1985 album Mr Bad Guy.
Tab by bass50611. Welcome to my version that is not as the original
computed bass line. A basis on which to builds one own feel on the song.
This is how I would play it with a band. DOES NOT fit the remixed version.
