Dinosaur Jr. – Freak Scene (Bass Tab)

Versions (6)

Auto-scroll

Song: Freak Scene Album: ? (I can't remember what album it comes from). Artist: Dinosaur Jr. Transcription by: Tom (E-mail - [email protected]) Apologies in advance as this is my first tab. I was forced to do this cos I noticed you have no Dinosaur Jnr in the tab index (shame on you). This tune is a classic. I strongly recommend you listen to it before attempting to play as this is a pretty sketchy tab. Bass comes in on bar 2.

Verse
A --5-5-5-4-5-7-7-7-777--------------------------
E ------------------------5-55-7--55-7--55-7--555    (X 4)
   "Seen enough to..."    "but i seen too much..."

This section is where the guitar just hits D chord twice

A --555--5-55-5-55-5-555
E ---------------------- (X 2)

In this bit the guitar chocks out E and A.

A ------------------0-0-0-00-0-00-0-00-----
E --000000000000000------------------------  (X 4)

Then it goes.. (this bit pretty much follows the verse rythym, but just E and Fsharp)

A -----------------------------------------
E --0-0-0-00-0-00-0-000--2-2-2-22-2-22-2-22  (X 4)

hold the Fsharp for one bar (give it a good hammering before going back into verse bit again) Verse bit again X4. (the last 2 bits of the 4 accompany the guitar solo) now the guitars stop and you get a solo yourself (yahoo) but dont get excited its not very interesting.

A --5------7----------------5------7--------
E ------------------5---------------------5-

Then back into verse. chuck in a couple of outrageously distorted and Wah Wah-ed guitar solo's and Bob's yer uncle, play to fade.
