Tuning: E A D G
Band: Muse Song: Thought Contagion Bassist: Chris Wolstenholme Tuning: Standard [Intro] Clean bass (turn the mid-frequencies on Your EQ up a bit) G|----------------------------------------------------------------------| D|----------------------------------------------------------------------| A|12~---12-12-11-10-9-8~--8-8-8-7-6-5-3~----3-3-4-5-6-7~--7-7-8-9-10-11-| E|----------------------------------------------------------------------| !!!Watch below for other ways to play this riff!!! On first chorus there is some extra "C" on second half of the riff, otherwise it seems same to me. Not sure about those vibratos though [Chorus and verse] Use octaver + flanger + some OD or heavy synth effect for this one: G|----------------------------------------------------------------------| D|----------------------------------------------------------------------| A|12----12-12-11-10-9-8---8-8-8-7-6-5-3---3-3-3-4-5-6-7---7-7-8-9-10-11-| E|----------------------------------------------------------------------| [Bridge/post-chorus] Rhythm here is a little bit tricky.... G|------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------7--------------------------------------------------------| A|8--88-5-5-5-5-----------------------------------------------------------| E|--------------------5-55-5-8-8-8-8--------------------------------------| G|------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------7--------------------------------------------------------| A|8--88-5-5-5-5-------7---7-----------------------------------------------| E|------------------------------------------------------------------------| Play that riff again. Not really sure about effect Chris is using on the verse - wah-wah maybe? [Bridge/post-chorus] G|------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|8-----5----------------------------8-----5------------------------------| E|---------------5----------------------------------5-----8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-| G|------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------7--------------------------------------------------------| A|8--88-5-5-5-5----------------------8--88-5-5-5-5--7--77--7777-----------| E|--------------------5-55-5-8-8-8-8--------------------------------------| And again - play that main riff till the end of the song and end it with 12th fret on A. If You don't like to play this riff using only one string, here are some variations G|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|12----12-12-11-10-9-8---8-8-8--------------------------------------8-9-10-11-| E|------------------------------12-11-10-8----8-8-9-10-11-12---12-12-----------| or G|-------------------------------------------------------------| D|7----7-7-6-5-4---------------------------------------3-4-5-6-| A|---------------8---8-8-8-7-6-5----------4-5-6-7--7-7---------| E|-------------------------------8----8-8----------------------| ************************************ | ~ Vibrato ************************************
