1965 single release for Motown Girl Group The Supremes. Peaked at
number 7 in UK Charts. Bass performance James Jamerson. Tab by
bass50611. My tab not exact. This how I see the bass line and
tabbed in the Jamerson style and, it sure fits the song.
(Re-vamped my tab 23-10-2021. A few corrections and easier to follow)
