Author/Artist: Madrugada Title: Black Mambo Album: The Nightly Disease Transcribed by: DMS & RH Standard tuning (EADGBE) This is the cool bassriff that is played in the begining of the song. (And also throughout the song) "Arranged" for guitar. I think. I've never played a bass, but it's pretty cool to play this on a normal guitar... e||---------------------------| e||---------------------------| B||---------------------------| B||---------------------------| G||---------------------------| G||---------------------------| D||-----------0---0-2---------| or D||---------------------------| A||-------0h2---2---------0---| A||-----------5---5-7---------| E||--0------------------3-----| E||--0----5h7---7-------3-5---| I sometimes use powercords on the first and the two last notes.
