Return To Serenity bass

Return To Serenity

The bass follows the rhythm guitar mainly throughout the song, especially in the
verses, and only ever
plays when the drums are being played also. This makes for a pretty simplistic,
yet very powerful ballad
to play.

   There is minor variation during the pauses where the hihat is
    heard; but its very simple-just miss out the 4 on the G String for
    the hihat breaks, which come after every 4 repeats
