Note: I made this tab to help me memorize the line for a cover I recorded for this song,
so I'm sorry
there's no rythm indication.
You can watch me preform the song here:
To get a sound similar to Pino all you really have to do is turn the tone on your bass
all the way down, and if you want to take it even further, you will need a set of
flatwound strings.
Enjoy!
