+ 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +
E | --- | ---5-X-----5-X--- |
B | --- | ---5-X-----5-X--- | Bass note is a pick-up requiring
G | --- | -6---X---6---X--- | an early shift to each chord
D | --- | ----------------- | X = muted slap
A | --- | ----------------- |
E | -5- | -----X-5-----X-7- |
However, that count produces a short bar of 7/8 leading into the CHORUS
and some off-beat vocal phrasing.
*** IMPORTANT UPDATE ***
Lisa's percussive slap is on the 'and' of Beat-2 and Beat-4.
The bass note is on the down beat.
