Don't Shoot Shotgun Bass tabs by Def Leppard

Don't Shoot Shotgun bass tab by Def Leppard

Bass tabs

Standard tuning (EADG)

NOTE: It was difficult pinning down the timing during the intro
as the lyrics and drums seem out of tempo with one another at
first. This tab starts with the first big all-in hit at around
approximately the 0:15 mark.

🏷Legend:
r = rest
() = sustained note
h = hammer on
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
^ = 1/4 bend
a = acciaccatura (appears above bar)
