Metallica - Of Wolf And Man - Bass Cover with Play Along Tabs

Metallica's Black Album is 30 years old 😱 To celebrate, here's a bass cover of another of my favourite songs from the Black Album, Of Wolf And Man, with Play Along in video Tabs.

The tab is for a 5 string bass in standard tuning, however I only play 4 notes on the B string after listening to the isolated bass and drum tracks. Jason used 4 string basses for live performances of this song, so just transpose those notes if you don't have a 5 string bass or a B string.

Of Wolf And Man Lyrics
Off through the new day's mist I run
Off from the new day's mist I have come
I hunt therefore I am
Harvest the land
Taking of the fallen lamb
Off through the new day's mist I run
Off from the new day's mist I have come
We shift pulsing with the earth
Company we keep
Roaming the land while you sleep
Shape shift, nose to the wind
Shape shift, feeling I've been
Move swift, all senses clean
Earth's gift, back to the meaning (back to the meaning) of life
Bright is the moon, high in starlight
Chill is the air, cold as steel tonight
We shift, call of the wild
Fear in your eyes, it's later than you realized
Shape shift, nose to the wind
Shape shift, feeling I've been
Move swift, all senses clean
Earth's gift back to the meaning (back to the meaning) of life
I feel I change
Back to a better day
(Shape shift) hair stands on the back of my neck
(Shape shift) in wildness is the preservation of the world
So seek the wolf and not the man
Shape shift, nose to the wind
Shape shift, feeling I've been
Move swift, all senses clean
Earth's gift
Back to the meaning (back to the meaning) of wolf and man, yeah
