Hanson – Mmmbop (Bass Tab)

Versions (4)
Auto-scroll

1997 lead single release from the debut album Middle Of Nowhere of American Pop Rock Band Hanson. It became a Global success, number I in several countries including the UK. Tab by bass50611. Bassline as I see it and what I would play with a band. I have added a few little slides/runs to make it more interesting.
