I Cant Help Myself
Written by Holland/Dozier/Holland originally recorded in 1965 by
The Four Tops (their first single) reaching number 10 in the UK
Number 1 in USA.The original bassist is the legendary, the one and only James Jamerson.
Tabbed by bass50611.
Taken from Jamersons original bass line, some others tabs are
incorrect, thought I would tab the correct one.
The only problem is to get the lower G note in at the start of the verse.
Old James was very, very good and fast at these fill in notes.
If youre not fast enough, youve missed it!
Any comments its bass254@btinternet.com

In the middle of the song. Great dance song for the Ladies!
