Notes: I also did a chord transcription for this
(in the OLGA archive). So you may want to check
that out. I've tabbed this for a five-string bass.
If you want to play this on a four-string (and
that's quite alright), then just replace the 1
on the B string with a 3 on the A string....it's
still a C note, just not as low :-)
The song is played in 3/4 time. The chords are
played with F and C at 1 bar each, then G for 2
bars, then back to start. Use this timing to
play the bass.
Pretty much the whole song is based around this riff
(I've put the chords on top so that the timing
is self-explanatory):
~=Trill
F C G
G ------2-----------------------
D 3-3-3--------2----------------
A -------3-3-3--------2---------
E --------------3-3-3----3-3-3-3
B ------------------------------
continued...
F C G
G ------------------------------0-7~
D -----------------------2-2-2-0----
A ----------------------------------
E -3-3-1-0-1---1--------------------
B -----------------1----1-----------
Then back to start.
