Kingston Wall was a psychadelic trio rock band from Finland. They were around in the
90's and released three or more (I'm not sure) albums. Those weren't however released
Finland I believe. Which is a shame because I think they're really good.
This song is from their second album, the bass is played by Jukka Jylli, great bass work throughout
the whole album.
Artist: Kingston Wall

Tuning is EADG, timing is not really respected, more like a hint.
Some small fills are left out as they don't matter as much and differ from time to time.
Correction: Oops, seems my bass wasn't in standard tuning when I tabbed this...
The song should be played 1 1/2 step down in pitch. E.g. start on C# instead of E.

Bridge and B are now played lots of times until the end with small variations
and fills here and there which I'm too lazy and not good enough to transcribe :)
At 3:10 and 4:50 a fill is played that goes something like:
-/9-9-9-7-9-9-9-7-9-7-------|
----------------------9-7---|
--------------------------7-|
----------------------------|
At 5:30, the song finish off with:
----12-11-9----------------------------|

Play pattern A, and after that:
