Bass tabs
Standard tuning (EADG) NOTE: There are two versions of this song -- the full album version, and the music video version. Both versions are exactly the same, the only difference being that while the song fades out at the 4:05 mark, on the album it kicks back in at 4:06 for an extended, two-and-a-half minute slow jam. I chose to tab the shorter music video version because it's the more popular version, and because I feel the slow jam finale is a bit redundant. Not hating, just saying. 🏷Legend: r = rest h = hammer on / = slide up \ = slide down ls = legato slide s = 16th note (appears above bar)
