      YES. I love how he uses that E power chord to make the "ding-dong" pattern of the tolling bell with the low E, especially because the chord makes it sound fuller and more powerful than if it were just a single note pattern. Plus Cliff just knows how to rest on the G, and then have the perfect lick to go on to the next set of bars. Also the C and A octave lines are peak metal badass. RIP Cliff, you brilliantly creative SOB.

      It starts on 19 of the G, but it's much harder to have your hands in a comfortable position on a 20 fret. Also cliff would solo a lot across the main solo and he had a lot more flexibility due to having a 24 fret bass.

So they documented it in tab, and for genres like metal, blues, folk, etc. that's how people learned.

Tablature even contains the signifier notes like staccato notes, sustained notes, time signatures, etc. It just removes the difficult part of reading music.

    Lyrics for sing along:
    Make his fight on the hill in the early day
    Constant chill deep inside!
    Shouting gun, on they run, through the endless grey
    On they fight for the right, yes but who's to say?
    For a hill, men would kill, why? They do not know
    Stiffened wounds test their pride!
    Men of five still alive through the raging glow,
    Gone insane from the pain that they surely know
    For Whom the Bell Tolls...Time marches on!
    For Whom the Bell Tolls!
    Take a look to the sky just before you die,
    It's the last time he will!
    Blackened roar, massive roar, fills the crumbling sky
    Shattered goals fills his soul with a ruthless cry,
    Stranger now are his eyes to this mystery,
    Hear the silence so loud!!!
    Crack of dawn, all is gone except the will to be
    Now they see what will be, blinded eyes to see
    For Whom the Bell Tolls... Time marches on!
    For Whom the Bell Tolls!!!

    damn I wish I could play bass with my fingers like that. I'm a pick bassist, and while I am able to play this with a pick, there's something more satisfying about playing Cliff's bass parts with your fingers. I still need to work on some of my distortion set-ups to match his sounds off the three albums.

    Quick question, did you tune the bass to 453hz to make it match the song?; because your cover sounds spot on which is one of the reasons why all others fell short to me.
