Band: Megadeth Song: Rust in Peace... Polaris Album: Rust in Peace Bassist: David Ellefson Tuning: Standard (E A D G) Tabbed by: JJJ This tab is based on the original bass track which is available here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vk0AWDFdIgE This song contains a lot of staccato notes that I didn't write in the tab. Most of them are pretty obvious but you can listen to the bass track if you want to be sure. The song is in triplets except for the intro and outro so I marked the start and end for those. The structure of the outro is a little strange so I tried to break it down as well as I could. = Intro = G|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
