Like I'm Gonna Lose You Bass Tab by Meghan Trainor

Like I'm Gonna Lose You bass tab by Meghan Trainor

Bass Tab 

Nice and smooth song, really easy and fun to add some tasty fills and licks.
Hope ya'll enjoy!
Difficulty is about a 4.5/10 on this one.

Counting it in semiquavers to get the feel easier to understand (count "One ee and ah" on each beat)
Ive mapped out when the notes occur above each staff in relation to this.
I've realised the bass kinda follows the rhythm of the vocal melody at most parts, along with the drums in the
triplet fills.

Using the time marks in relation to this video (which I'm sure is the same for spotify and itunes etc)

No Bass for first verse (Its played with acoustic guitar low strings)
(Can still play main riff during it, but I think always best to add the extra dynamic of bass when the chorus
hits if you're playing with a band)
