I’m entering this tab under the Dead Boys because it was originally their song and, even
there is only one bass tab for it, there are apparently too many GNR tabs of it
to UG). This is a great song so I figured someone needed to tab it right and the genius
did the GNR one tabbed something closer to the rhythm guitar than the bass guitar.

Now that is a very simplified version that sounds close and good with the song but here
some fills with some extra notes that will help you modify the sound and add some variety:
Any Verse:
-----------------------------------|
-----------------------------------|
---2-2--2-1--5-----------0--2--2---|
----------------0--3-3--3----------|
The line this replaces is mostly quarter notes, so this is really just the original with
eighth notes and bridge-notes.
Chorus:
--------------------------------------|
--------------------------------------|
--------------------------------------|
--33333333--55555555--77777775555555--|
This is played as a fill during the Outro/Chorus.
