Hey there, I have seen this bass tab only a few days ago, I learnt how to do the REAL
bass tab by ear and from the guitar tabs. To be fair it is a pretty easy tab to hear.
There are not many notes and its just the same as the' guitar tab, but just using
the root notes and octaves! Simples!

The verse notes are accurate, but just listen for the timing. I only had a few minutes
to do this, that's why it isn't fully accurate.

A fun thing to do is to play this part below (in brackets) in the guitar fill, but its
not normally played.

So that's basically it, simple easy song to play. The notes are accurate, timings a bit
off but I only had 5 minutes to it in.
