We have an official Mk Ultra tab made by UG professional guitarists.
Check out the tab
Title: MK Ultra
Artist: Muse
Album: The Resistance
 
Tabbed by Hazel (lezahtherock). Email: latetoo00@hotmail.com
 
Tuning: Drop D
 
NOTE: I've seen the other tabs out there. Usually the differences lie in the
chorus and bridge, but the verses are mostly alright (and pretty straightforward
really). I've finally given it a really good listen and I'm fairly certain that
this is how it's played. Give it a try and leave any comments/queries or email
me if you have anything to say.

I believe the chord in the bridge for Guitar one would sound better as: x3554x instead of x6654x (sorry I couldnt be bothered to type it out as a tab) Otherwise a very solid tab. I couldn't really work out the rest of the chords on my own through all the distortion effects. Thanks
