Spaceman Bass

(ver. 1)
Dave Matthews Band

A simple but yet fun song to play. Theres a lot of room for improvisation.

| h  hammer-on
| p  pull-off

Intro:

G|-------------------|-------------------|
D|-------------------|-------------------|
A|-------------------|-------------------|
E|--2----------------|--2----------------|


Vers:

G|-------7h9---------|--77-6-------------|
D|---7-9-------------|-------7p5---------|
A|-------------------|-------------------|
E|-2-----------------|-------------------|

This is the basics of the vers-riff. Lessard does a lot of improvisation. One live 
differs from another. He’s pretty great!
So just fool around with this!

Pre-chours:

  Chords:  |  F   G   A   (A)  |

G|-------------------|---------------14)-|
D|------3-----5------|------7-----14-----|
A|----3-----5--------|----7---(12--------|
E|--1-----3----------|--5----------------|

Just play arpeggios (broken chords).

Chorus:

 |  D  A  Bm G  |


G|------7---------------------------12------|
D|----7---7-----7--------9-------12----12---|
A|--5---------7---7----9---9--10------------|
E|----------5--------7----------------------|

|  D  A  C |


G|------7----------------------------|
D|----7---7-----7--------------------|
A|--5---------7---7--3-33/151515-----|
E|----------5------------------------|

|  F   G   A   (A)  |

G|-------------------|---------------14)-|
D|------3-----5------|------7-----14-----|
A|----3-----5--------|----7---(12--------|
E|--1-----3----------|--5----------------|

(Last part is obviously the same as the pre-chorus.)

The unison little lick at the very end of the song goes like this:

G|----------------------|
D|--9-7--------------7--|
A|------10-9-10-9-10----|
E|----------------------|

Enjoy!
