SITTING STILL (Bass Tab)
From: Christopher Gantner ([email protected])
Introduction and "I can hear you"
Note the "."'s are on the tab to seperate notes. They have no value in
counting time. Each - is a quarter beat.
G|------------------------------------------------------------- D|---------------------------------------------9.9.9.9.9.9.9.9- A|12-12.11.11-11.9-9-9-9-9.11.12-12.11.11-11.11---------------- E|------------------------------------------------------------- G|-------------------------- D|-------------------------- A|12-12.11.11-11.9-9-11-9-7- E|--------------------------
Towards the end of the song there will be a line where the 9's on the D
string will not be played. Insted just play the 9's on the A string like
the first part of the riff.
