Thin Lizzy - Whiskey In The Jar bass tab

Artist: Thin Lizzy(Metallica)

Song: Whiskey in the Jar

Transcribed by: Justin Servis 14/1/2000 (justin99@ignmail.com)

ok, there are two main riffs, the chorus riff, and the verse riff.

listen to the song to work out where they go.

the song starts halfway through the chorus riff, so i?ll put that down as the intro.

i also included the changes made by myself and metallica.

i?ll write this down the way i play it. i think the original is just the

basic notes(the same as the chords).

the verse riff2 and chorus riff2 are played at the end of the guitar solo.
