Bass tab for Third Eye by Tool
This is the most powerful, and meaningful song that I have ever heard
because it sums up what Tool is all about. It is also one of the hardest
songs to duplicate because it just has that special Tool sound that nobody
could ever redo. This song has so many effects and tricks that I've never
heard in my life, so I did the best I possibly could have at figuring out
the bass tab. Maybe you can do better.

| it's cool, since it features some rantings from one of the greatest human beings to tread the earth (and is sadly no longer with us) Bill Hicks. He's amazing, and if you have any interest in social and political commentary and the smartest comedy you'll ever hear, check him out. | |

| Like phosphorescent desert buttons interesting point about this lyric. The reason why he refers to peyote as phosphorescent desert buttons is because if you look at it through some sort of heat vision (googles or whatever) they all glow a slightly different shade. | |

| I just found something out: DMT is present in the brain, more specifically, the pineal gland. Also known as the "Ajna Chakra" in Hindu belief and also known as your "Third Eye". | |

| Tool have been compared to prog rock bands and certainly you could say that their albums are like concept albums, and some themes are present in several of their albums. If you look at the artwork for Opiate, Aenima and Lateralus they all have eyes. This is also like the video of Parabola and the first thing you see when you go onto their "Dissectional" website is a third eye appearing. I just read the message posted by Makoe, who has said basically the same thing, but didn't mention the other albums. I don't really know what this song is about in detail, I think that Madson guy/girl? should contribute, if you've read any of his postings I'm sure you'll agree he is exceptionally knowledgable, in fact I wouldn't be overly supried if he is Maynard. By the way, I'm soon going to get the circle of eyes that is on the Lateralus CD tatooed on my lower back. | |

| Like phosphorescent desert buttons Singing one familiar song... When he sings these two lines he is refering to the use of the halucinagenic peyote cactus that grows in parts of northern Mexico and the SW United States. After eating between 4 and 8 "buttons" from the inside of the peyote cactus, one can experience visions including animals who speak. | |
