MUSE – Sing For Absolution (Live) – Tutorial Play Along Tab

This transcription is widely taken from the Glastonbury 2004 performance. There are only a few pro shots of Sing For Absolution on the Internet, but it was enough to figure out the chords as you can see 🙃

As usual, I've used every source available online to try and get the most accurate score from Matt Bellamy's finger placement. Hope you'll enjoy it!

I made it entirely from scratch, hope you'll like it (I didn't checked the finger placement for bass, except for the outro, so don't blame me if it's not correct. But at least I know it "sounds" correct!
