The Cure

The Cure - Screw bass tab

The Cure . "Screw" from The Head on the Door . Bass Tab

Standard Tuning(EADG)

Mostly the same 2 riffs over and over with some slight variation at the

beginning of the riff. Listen to the song to pick out the rhythm.

Played with a pick (like you mean it) and with heavy distortion...
