Here's my attempt to write down the Bass Tabs for "We Are The
Champions" by Queen.
The "*"s and dots are for rhythm guidance - there are 6 beats in a
bar and a " * . . * . . " pattern above the tabs for each bar so that
for example anything underneath the 2nd "*" would be played on the
4th beat and anything under the following dot would be played on the
5th beat etc.
