Live - Pain Lies On The Riverside bass tab
"Pain Lies On The Riverside" by Live from the Mental Jewelry
Tabbed by R. Allen Canterbury
I'm not sure about the chorus or bridge parts...what I have written is a
very simple way to play it (the roots of the chords basically...) so do
whatever you like in that part. I get the feeling this song played 1/2 step
below standard tuning (Eb,Ab,Db,Gb) since Live usually tunes down...but you
can play it the way I have it written and it sounds cool. I indicate the
verse riff as being played slap-style. You can use a pick and turn the highs
up if you like to get that slap-like sound. The verse is played quickly so
if your slap technique is lagging or a bit slow, it'd be hard to play w/o a
pick. Hey...it's just notes. You play them as you like!
