The Beatles - Why Dont We Do It In The Road bass tab
Here is the tab for Why Don`t We Do It In The Road, by Lennon/McCartney
(from the Beatles` White Album from 1968). It`s very simple.
Here goes:
"Why don`t we do it in the road?" (D)
G---------------------------------------------------------
D---------------------------------------------------------
A-------------------------5-5-5-5-5-5-5---5-5-5-5-5-5-5---
E---------------------------------------5---------------5-

G--------------------------------------------------------------
D---------------------------------5-5-5-5-5-5---5-5-5-5-5-5-5-
A-5-5-5-5-5-5-5---5-5-5-5-5-5-5--5------------5---------------5--
E---------------5---------------5------------------------------5
(G7) "No one will be watching us!" A7
G----------------------------------------------------------------- /
D---------------------------------7-7-7-7-7-7-7---5-5-5-5-5-5-5--- <-
A-5-5-5-5-5-5-5---5-5-5-5-5-5-5-----------------7---------------5--
E---------------5---------------5---------------------------------5
(D)
G-------------------
D-------------------
A-5-5-5-5-5-5-5---5- And then it starts from the top. You can improvise
E---------------5--- in the little break here, I use to play something
along these lines:
G--------
D-------- And just continue from there. However, I think
A ----3-5 Macca is playing the second verse a bit
E-2h5---- different from the first one, it sounds like
he`s playing a lot of octaves and scales, but I
can`t figure out exactly what it is, so I won`t
include it here. But perhaps you can help me? Now you`ve got the basic
pattern, so just work on it from there if you like. I`d love to get some
comments, complaints, corrections, anything, so just send it to
