Song: Sorrow Artist: Box Car Racer Album: Box Car Racer Transcribed by: Jess H This is a really great song and very easy to play on bass. The tab here is the basic root note stucture that is definately used, however during the solo I think thirds and fifths are also present in the bass line but are only played very softly so if you listen carefully enough you might be able to hear them yourself. During the guitar riff at the beginning and inbetween the first chorus and the second verse. Let the notes ring: RIFF 1: 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 G------------------/--------------/--------------/--------------/ D------------2-----/---0----------/--------2-----/---0----------/ A-----0------------/--------------/--0-----------/--------------/ E------------------/--------------/--------------/--------------/ This is the chorus riff (I'm sorry, please forgive me,... etc) but can also be played throughout the verse (although there isn't actually a bass playing during the verse) it still fits: RIFF 2: G--------------------------------/----------------------------/ D--------------------------------/----------------------------/ A--------------------------------/----------------------------/ E---------------5555555544444444-/-2222222244444444-----------/ Guitar solo (each note held for a whole bar - let the ring) this is where thirds and fifths can be added: RIFF 3: G------------------/--------------/--------------/--------------/ D------------------/--------------/---2----------/---0----------/ A---0--------------/---0----------/--------------/--------------/ E------------------/--------------/--------------/--------------/ G------------------/--------------/--------------/--------------/ D------------------/--------------/---2----------/--------------/ A---0--------------/---0----------/--------------/--0-----------/ E------------------/--------------/--------------/--------------/ PLAYING ORDER: Guitar Only Riff 1 (Riff 2) x2 Riff 1 (Riff 2) x2 Riff 2 x2 Riff 1 (Riff 2) x2 Riff 2 x4 Riff 3 Riff 2 x Drum and Vox only NOTE: (Riff 2) in brackets means play it optionally, otherwise it's just the guitar playing.
