Bass tab by:PJVillanueva
Paul recorded two basses for this song. One conventionally and
another with his Epiphone Casino tuned down and played through
a fuzz box. You can find this second bass part and its tuning
on my THINK FOR YOURSELF guitar tab. The conventional bass part
is presented here.
I've got a word or two
To say about the things that you do.
You're telling all those lies
About the good things that we can have
If we close our eyes.
Do what you want to do
And go where you're going to.
Think for yourself
'Cause I won't be there with you.
I left you far behind,
The ruins of the life that you had in mind.
And though you still can't see
I know your mind's made up
You're gonna cause more misery.
Do what you want to do
And go where you're going to.
Think for yourself
'Cause I won't be there with you.
Although your mind's opaque
Try thinking more if just for your own sake.
The future still looks good
And you've got time to rectify
All the things that you should.
Do what you want to do
And go where you're going to.
Think for yourself
'Cause I won't be there with you.
Do what you want to do
And go where you're going to.
Think for yourself
'Cause I won't be there with you.
Think for yourself
'Cause I won't be there with you.
