It sounds good, but if you play it like this, it sounds alot better. h = hammer on (push down on the fret to make the note sound, instead of strumming) >= slide UP the string < = slide DOWN the string Half the song is acoustic, with only guitar and vocals, but the bass comes in just after he sings "The baby down the hall", you can just hear it... 1:57 G:---------- D:---------- A:---------- E:-4-4-<-0-- then really soft... x4 1:58 h G:--------------------------------------------------------------- D:--------------------------------------------------------------- A:-----------2--2--4--------------------------------------------- E:-0--0--2-4---------2---2----4-<-------------------------------- Then it goes back slower, and the drums kick in soon...(bit louder) x4 2:23 G:--------------------------------------------------------------- D:--------------------------------------------------------------- A:----------------2---2---4-------------------------------------- E:-0---0---2->-4--------------2---2---2-2-2---2---4-<------------ Now louder with drums, this part sounds cool... x2 3:05 h G:--------------------------------------------------------------- D:--------------------------------------------------------------- A:------------2-2-2--4---------------4-6-4----------------------- E:-0-0-0-2-4------------2-2-2-2->-6--------6-4-<----------------- h G:--------------------------------------------------------------- D:--------------------------------------------------------------- A:-------------2-2-2--4-------------4---------------------------- E:-0-0-0--2-4------------2---2->-6--------6-<-------------------- Line before solo... 3:26 G:--------------------------------------------------------------- D:--------------------------------------------------------------- A:-------------2-2-2--4-------------4---5-6---------------------- E:-0-0-0--2-4------------2---2->-6------------------------------- Solo... 3:30 x2 G:--------------------------------------------------------------- D:----4->-8-<--6-<--4--6--4-------------------------------------- A:-6-------------------------6--4--6-6--------------------------- E:--------------------------------------------------------------- G:--------------------------------------------------------------- D:----4->-8-<--6-<--4-4-6--4--------------6-7-6-------8-9->-11--- A:-6-------------------------6--4--6-7--7-------7->-9------------ E:--------------------------------------------------------------- G:--------------------------------------------------------------- D:----4->-8-<--6-<--4--6--4-------------------------------------- A:-6-------------------------6--4--6-6--------------------------- E:--------------------------------------------------------------- G:--------------------------------------------------------------- D:----4->-8-<--6-<--4-4-6--4--------------6-7-6------------------ A:-6-------------------------6--4--6-7--7-------7->-9-9-9-9-<---- E:--------------------------------------------------------------- Now basically, you play these two lines over and over again until the end of the song... 4:05 h G:--------------------------------------------------------------- D:--------------------------------------------------------------- A:------------2-2-2--4---------------4-6-4----------------------- E:-0-0-0-2-4------------2-2-2-2->-6--------6-4-<----------------- h G:--------------------------------------------------------------- D:--------------------------------------------------------------- A:-------------2-2-2--4-------------4---------------------------- E:-0-0-0--2-4------------2---2->-6--------6-<-------------------- You have to get all the sliding right, otherwise it doesn't sound as good. Its a really good bass tune, and they should have recorded it louder, it's really hard to hear. As always, listen to the song for tempo, i've tried to give you some idea of tempo with larger gaps.
