A Passage To Bangkok Bass Tab

Tabbed by: fleaflicka

tuning: standard E, A, D, G

The other bass tab for this song was pathetic. Sorry, but open your ears, do Geddy some
justice. This is like 99.99% correct. This is one of the best songs they ever wrote.
Listen to the song while playing this tab to get the rhythm. feel free to comment and
please rate!


 **After four times of the guitar playing this, Geddy comes in.
