Song: Women's Studies Victims (bass tab)
Author: of Montreal (written by Kevin Barnes)
Tabbed by: Donnet Güemes (phazon_elite24@hotmail.com)
This is for you guys at the Townhall.
--------------------------------------
Alright, this was tabbed according to what I heard in several live versions
of the song. There are a few parts that I don't think are accurate enough,
but I hope that this at least gives you the general idea of how the song
goes.
There are two basses in the song, I've written what each one plays right below the other.
There are a few drum parts between each part, so listen to the song to know
exactly when the basses come in and the right strumming.
