Song: Bessy's Last Journey
Artist: Spiderbait
Album: Grand Slam
tabbed by: Peter O'Connor
NB: this song uses a delay i think (or reverb atleast), so it sounds like you hit the strings more than once
but you dont, thats just the effect. Also, spacings are not exact, that would be too hard to do.
KEY for this song:
()=ghost note
{}=take note of when the notes are played later in the song
(ie, may not be played again later, only first time thru)
bass intro (i think its the same thru the whole thing, maybe, i wasnt paying attention..)
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------3--5--7-9-12-| the part on the A string is repeated every now and then
E|-5--1--0--3-4-5--1--0--3-4-5--1--0--3-4-5--1--0--3-4---------------|
The rest of the bass is based on those notes, i think.
