This is my first tab, so it's not 100% correct, and there are parts where I'm not
sure how is played, so you can listen to it and do whatever suits you. :)


Repeat this part 2 times

Here after you repeat it, on the ending
note you just kinda chromatically climb up to 11 on the B string.

Tuning for this song is Dropped C#
I also have a bass cover of this on youtube if you want to use it as a basic guide.
Also not 100% sure what to call each part since it's not your typical song structure,
but hopefully you get the basic idea.

Intro

No Bass

Verse 1

I watched iTunes festival video and saw that Chris played this song on his
black Status S2-Classic bass which he used for two other songs - Animals
and Starlight Both songs were played on Half-Step Down tuned bass. Survival
was played on same key as album version so it's impossible that Chis played
this song in Dropped C tuning. I think it's because Chris use octaver
(second half but I'm not sure) so that's why some notes sound lower than they
are and that means that there's no Dropped C tuning for this song.
