Brian Eno - Deep Blue Day Bass Tab

Tabbed by Richard Jones <s1393460@hotmail.com>

This song was made famous by the notorious Trainspotting toilet

scene.  Not a particularly hard one to tab.  All of five minutes of

concentrated listening.  Such a picturesque song and easy to play.  

The timing is very simple, you'll get it instantly.  I sincerely doubt

that this is wrong, if it is, my mail address is up the top there.

Standard EADG tuning.

There are three key parts:

NO. 1              Order of Play

G--------------------------        1 x No. 1

D--------------------------        3 x No. 2

A-----9-----9-----9-----9--        1 x No. 3

E--7-----7-----7-----7-----        1 x No. 2

                

NO. 2

G--------------------------     I suspect that there is an  

D--------------------------     extra E12 (E) note in

A-----14----14----14----14-     the movement from 3 to 2.  

E--12----12----12----12----     You will only hear this with    

              headphones on, it is very

NO. 3             minute.

G--------------------------

D--------------------------

A-----7-----7-----7-----7--

E--5-----5-----5-----5-----

Repeat this to till the song fades out. Note that in the initial

playing of this the very first two notes of No. 1 are extremely hard to

hear as the song starts with a fade in. Either play three or be very

gentle.

If anyone has ever had a pop at ambient electronic stuff such as Aphex

Twin's Selected Ambient works drop me a line, I know that its electronic

bass but its catchy.. and it'd be nice to play along.
