New Order – Dreams Never End (Bass Tab)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: gmtx12 Fantastic bassline, fantastic song, fantastic band. Bear in mind Hooky plays this on his Shergold 6-string bass (tuned EADGBE, like a guitar an octave down), it is doable on a 4-stringer but it is quite awkward I'm about 95% sure this is right, there are so many octave drones in this bassline though so sometimes it's hard to tell whether it's a low or a high (or both at the same time) A/D/whatever being played... Think I've got it down though mostly Tuning: Standard Note each double dash (--) corresponds to a 1/8th note. == INTRO PART 1 ==
