THE DEAD MILKMEN
Part 3 - Bass

from Metaphysical Graffiti

Tabbed by: Mike Brennan (djpolokus@hotmail.com)


Yes, I know, it seems weird because I don't even have a bass yet, but
with this little kiddie acoustic guitar, I figured out the bass parts
for this song. Here goes:


Main riff:

G-----------------------------------
D-----------------------------------
A-1-1-2-2-1-1-2-2-1-1-2-0---0-0-0---
E-----------------------------------

Chorus:

G-----------------------------------
D-1-1-2-2-1-1-2-2-1-1-2-0---0-0-0---
A-----------------------------------
E-----------------------------------

(Play main riff again once)

G--------------------
D--------------------
A-6--5--4------------
E---------4--3--2----

Play the main riff again and use the main riff through the solo

Part after the solo:

G-----------------|----
D-----------------|----
A----4--5----4--5-|3---
E-3-------3-------|----

G-----------------|---------------
D-----------------|---5-----------
A----4--5----4--5-|6-----6----4--5
E-3-------3-------|--------3------

This part is used during the "I saw you naked and you were hiding under
a tree" part, and right when Rod and Joe say Born Free for the second
time, start playing the main riff again and keep playing it for the
rest of the song. For anyone who needs lyrics, they're on this site,
and I think you can figure it out.
