The Way It Is by Tesla bass tab (text):Tesla "The Way It is" off of The Great Radio Controversy Tabbed by Eric Somdahl (unless you have a legal issue... then it was somebody else) This is a very taseful bassline from an excellent song. A fretless would be useful for all of the sliding, pulloffs and hammerons. I left out some if the fills but all of the important stuff is there. Wait till after guitar intro, then...

I'd have to look at the guitar music to see if those are the actual chords but if you play enough notes nobody will notice that you're outside the chord. G|-------------------| D|-------------------| A|----------------5--| E|--3--3---5--5------| Note 1: There's a lot of stuff you can do here. The first lick I put in there is just about what he's playing. The second one is just something else that will fit. Minor pentatonic scales are your friend! Note 2: Basically the same as note 1. Minor pentatonic scales are your friend... the chord is Dm7 Note 3: Get your own pentatonic licks! I'm not giving any more out! :) The chord is Am7 Eric Somdahl ICQ #67654004 eric@esscowebdesign.com http://www.esscowebdesign.com |
