Tips on playing:
This song has a real strong bass and it's so easy to play. But there's a way to play it if you want the strong
notes of the song. The way is tune your E string to D. But if you have a 5 string bass this is not a problem.
First I'll give the tab for the 5 string and then for the 4 strings with the E string in D.
The song goes always like this:
Riff: Verse: Chorus: Intro: (Bass starts at 0:27)
G|------------------------|------------------------| All the song is like that, just the tempo it's
D|------------------------|------------------------| a little hard for some people.
A|------------------------|------------------------|
E|3---6------------------6|3---6-------------------|
B|------4--3...-------3---|------4--3...-----------|
1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &
(in 1:30 is a little trick)
G|------------------------|------------------------|------------------------| Just doesn't play
D|------------------------|------------------------|------------------------| the 3rd fret of the E
A|------------------------|------------------------|------------------------| string in the last 4 beats.
E|3---6------------------6|3---6-------------------|----6-------------------|
B|------4--3...-------3---|------4--3...-----------|------4--3...-----------|
1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &
Now, if you have a 4 string bass and you've tuned the E string to D, you have to do tihs:
G|------------------------|------------------------|
D|------------------------|------------------------|
A|------------------------|------------------------|
D|5---8-1--0...-------0--8|5---8-1--0...-----------|
1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &
Or you can do this, so you don't move your hand too much:
G|------------------------|------------------------|
D|------------------------|------------------------|
A|----0------------------0|----0-------------------|
D|5-----1--0...-------0---|5-----1--0...-----------|
1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &
Another problem here is that the song has parts with and without bass, so here you have the time marks where
the bass is played:
0:27 to 0:45:
1:03 to 1:21:
1:30 to 1:49:
1:58 to 2:35:
2:43 to the end of the song:
That's all, if there's any mistake, please comment or correct it.
