The Ancient (Giants Under The Sun) - Yes From: Tales From Topograpic Oceans Bass Tab - Matthew Gilmore segaloco@gmail.com This tablature includes time indicators. These are based solely on playback and may vary between recordings. As extra aid, the intro drum count is included. This tablature includes a section with overdubed content. This is noted in that section. This song uses a wah-wah pedal for several parts. I will note these changes in a future revision. ~ = Sustain this note, vibrato if desired There is no guarantee that this is 100% right but I spent a great deal of time working on it so please, if you have any constructive comments or criticism, I'd greatly appreciate it to better iron out this track. 0:00 Drums |-----------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------| |--x-x------------x-x-------x-x------x-x--| |-----------------------------------------| x3 0:31 1:23 |---------------------------------| |---| |---3~----5~--3~------------3-5~--| |---| |-5-----5---------5~--5~--5-------| |---| |---------------------------------| x14 end on |-4-| 1:25 2:08 |-----------------------| |------------------------| |------6---------9-11---| |------6---------9-11----| |--------6-7-8-8--------| |--------6-7-8-8---------| |-4~--4---------------4-| x12 |-4~--4---------------0~-| 2:20 2:33 2:41 |-----------------------| |------6---------9-11---| |------6---------9-11-13-| |------6---------9-11---| |--------6-7-8-8--------| |--------6-7-8-8---------| |--------6-7-8-8--------| |-----------------------| |------------------------| |-4~--4---------------4-| x4 |-4~--4---------------4-| x3 |-4~--4------------------| 2:48 |-------------------------------------------------| |------6---------9-11----------6---------9-11-9~--| |--------6-7-8-8-----------------6-7-8-8----------| |-4~--4---------------4~--4~--4-------------------| 3:03 |-12~--11-9------12~-----------------------------------------9-----------------------------------| |-----------12~-------------9-10~--9----9-10-12~--10-9-10-12---12-10-9-10-9----9-10-12~--9~------| |---------------------10-12----------12-------------------------------------12---------------7~--| |------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| 3:26 |---------------------------| |---------------------------| |-------5~~-----------------| |--8~~-------8~~--6~~--4~~--| 3:44 |--------------------------| |---7------7---7--------7~~| |-0------0---0--------0~~~~| |--------------------------| x6 4:36 |--------------------------| |---5------5---5--------5~~| |--------------------------| |-3------3---3--------3~~~~| x5 5:11 |--------------------------| |---7------7---7--------7~~| |-0------0---0--------0~~~~| |--------------------------| x2 5:28 |--------------------------| |---5------5---5--------5~~| |--------------------------| |-3------3---3--------3~~~~| x4 5:53 |--------------------------| |---7------7---7--------7~~| |-0------0---0--------0~~~~| |--------------------------| x3 6:10 |---------------------------------| |-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-| Trem.
