Watchmen – All Uncovered tab

This song is in 12/8, so listen to it to get the right feel. It starts
out just with drums, and then the bass plays this:

intro figure 1:

1 + + 2 + + 3 + + 4 + +G|---6------6-----6------6---|D|-4----4-4---4-4----4-4---4-|A|---------------------------| x2E|---------------------------|
figure 2 (intro and verse):
1 + + 2 + + 3 + + 4 + + 1 + + 2 + + 3 + + 4 + +G|---9------9-----6------6---| |---4------------2------2---|D|/7----7-7---7\4----4-4---4-| |\2----2-2-4-2-0----0-0---0-|A|---------------------------| x3 |---------------------------|E|---------------------------| |---------------------------|
The guitar comes in after the bass has played figure 2. The same riff is played over figure 2 once for the intro and then during the verses. intro and verse riff:
