I love playing this song on guitar, its a fairly simple one that sounds beautiful,
so I decided to tab it for bass. I also have a version for six string bass, email me
if you want it. ( I chose not to post it because not too many people play six string)
Dedicated to Randy Burns
 
Tuning: Standard 4 string GDAE

yes, thats pretty much the point, arranging it so you can play it on bass, so its supposed to be the same.

you have tabbed pretty much what the guitar plays - this is pretty wrong dude.
