The Strokes – Two Kinds Of Happiness (Bass Tab)

There was no tab for this song, so I decided to do it. It's pretty easy.
Remember to palm mute the notes in the intro, verses and 1st pre-chorus.
If you're following the beats with your feet to read the tab, you must double the tempo of the beat
when you get to the chorus.
Enjoy!
