The bass tab follows the guitar almost perfectly, so it gives you a chance to get some really cool effects going. Enjoy.

This is what I get from looking at some guitar tab, but it just doesn't sound "perfect" G|----------------------------------------------------------------- D|-----------------------------------9--------------7-------------- A|--5/7--7--7--7----5-7-7-7------------9--------------7------------ E|----------------------------7-7-7------7---5-5-5------5---------- G|------------------------------------------------------------------ D|------------------------------------------------------------------ A|------------------------------------------------------------------ E|----5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5/8--8--8--8---7--7--0-------------------------- Lyrics- In my own simple way I think she wants me only she said 'come over right away' But she's just not that way her little soul is stolen see her put on her brand new face Pull the shades, razor blades you're so tragic Hate you so, love you more, so elastic things you say, games you play, dirty magic I... I should know better than to think i'd reach inside her it's all a cloudy kind of daze she's not so sweet today she mocks me, i'm no fighter it always seems like such a waste. it's oversimplified... ----------------------------------------------------------------- That's it. If you know where I went wrong, e-mail me with the corrections. This is one of my favorite songs and it really gets me that I can't get the chorus to sound right. Maybe he steps his bass down some, or uses a pedal. I'll have to try it. --=====================_818222783==_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" -- dpezet@accessorl.net --=====================_818222783==_--
Some of it doesn't seem right. The end of the main riff seems to be missing something, and the chorus, as you pointed out, doesn't really sound right. Good overall, though. Great song.
