The Rolling Stones - Wild Horses bass tab
Rolling Stones
Wild Horses
(Mick Jagger / Keith Richards)
This song is a pretty easy song to play on bass just as long as you know where to play all the notes. You might want to listen to "Wild Horses" and play it to start out with just to get aquainted with everything. This is a slow song so don't try to got too fast. It might sound better on an acoustic.

Here are the lyrics if you need them in addition to the tab. I would suggest that if you need to know where to play the notes that you go through the song and listen while making marks next on the lyrics:
(Intro)
Verse 1:
Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands
Chorus:
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away
Verse 2:
I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you decided to show me the same
No sweeping exits or offstage lines
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind
Chorus:
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away
(Bridge)
Verse 3:
I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom but I don't have much time
Faith has been broken, tears must be cried
Let's do some living after we die
Chorus:
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away
(Bridge)
Chorus:
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away
