Dave Matthews Band

Dave Matthews Band - Two Step bass tab

"Two Step" by the Dave Matthews band from the album "Crash"

Bass line transcribed by Brian Cieszynski (Spitfire@ods.ods.net)

There are a couple existing versions of this bassline on the

OLGA, but I sat down with sheet music and a video of Stefan

playing this song and the following tab I see as the most

correct by far. This tab is set for a 5-string, but

just ignore the bottom line for this song, as it is played on

a 4-string. The 5-string frame is set into my computer and

I didn't remove the bottom line for this song, and as I said,

just ignore it. Enjoy!

Intro-Guitar, Bass Tacet
