Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders - Main Theme BASS TAB
Song by Matthew Kane

This song is mostly fine on four-string bass, but the end goes off the
upper range. So, I moved parts of that down an octave. I'll put a six
string version of the end at the bottom, too, in the original octave.
Four-string bass, standard tuning. Though um, the videos on youtube seem
to be a semitone flat. So maybe tune to Eb Ab Db Gb. :-)
