Heres my transposition of the song Murderers by John Frusciante from guitar to bass:

Verse 0:
G---------------6-9-----------------------|
D-----9--6-7-7------9--7-6--7--7----------|
A---9-----------------------------9-99999-|
E(2)--------------------------------------|
The notes on the bottom two strings are
from the rythm guitar; you dont have to play thm
Verse 1:
G----------------6------------------|
D---9--6-7-7----9-9--7-6--7---------|
A-------------------------------9-9-|
E-----------------------------------|

Verse 0:
G-------------6-9-------------------|
D---9--6-7-7------9--7-6--7---------|
A-------------------------------9-9-|
E-----------------------------------|

Verse 1:
G----------------6-----------------|
D---9--6-7-7----9-9--7-6--7--7-----|
A----------------------------------|
E----------------------------------|

Chorusy type thing:
G-1-----2-----1--------------------|
d(2)---(4)---(2)----3--------------|
a-------------------4--------------|
e-0-----2-----0--------------------|

or you could play up higher:

G-13---------14---------13---------10------|
D------------------------------------------|
A------------------------------------------|
E-12---------14---------12----------9------|

Verse 2:
G-------------1--1-2--2--2-2222-2----------|
D---4-----4--------------------------------|
A------------------------------------------|
E-2----2-----------------------------------|

Then slighly different:
G-------------1--4-2--2--2-2222-2----------|
D---4-----4--------------------------------|
A------------------------------------------|
E-2----2-----------------------------------|

Then more different:
G---9-----9-----1--2--222222-|
D----------------------------|
A----------------------------|
E(2)---(2)-------------------|

Then more the same but still different:
G-------------1--------|
D---4-----4--------3~~-|
A----------------------|
E-2----2---------------|

Then Old stuff:

Verse 0
Verse 1
Verse 0
Verse 1


Then a new part:
G---1------2--------1-----4--2-|
D-2----4---------2-------------|
A------------------------------|
E------------------------------|

G---1------2-----|
D-2----4------3~-|
A-------------4~-|
E-------------4~-|

G---1------2--------1-----4--2-|
D-2----4---------2-------------|
A------------------------------|
E------------------------------|

G---1------2-----|
D-2----4------3~-|
A-------------4~-|
E-------------4~-|

Verse 0 then 1 then 0 then 1 (with the nasty note
[G string 6th fret]going throughout those verses)

Then all four versions of verse 2 in the same order
as above

on the music there's a big break then Verse 0 then 1 then 0 then 1
end with the chorusy thing once

That's it.  I hope you njoy it , i think its mostly accurate
