Transcribed by Toby Stretch
Standard tuning (E, A, D, G)
Bassist: Julia "Julz" Ruzicka

Great song and great fun to play, tab may not be perfect but i tried my best, feel free to correct!
All done on A string. I suppose you could transcibe a few notes to the E string to make it a bit exicting but meh.

ring A as long as possible, if you want play it again, There COULD be a little bit of distortion on it to the very end to give an effect, but im not sure if thats just guitar but it sounds like bass as well
If you dont have distortion just play like normal, sounds fine either way!
