The Boys Are Back In Town Bass

(ver. 1)
Everclear
A simpler version of Thin Lizzy's classic.


Tuning: EADG

Time signature: 8/8

r = rest (listen for duration)

*My tabs are meant to be read in conjunction with listening to the song.
In other words, there are no specific notations to account for note/rest duration. 
However, you will find that I’ve made an attempt to strategically
space the notes and rests within their respective measures
in order to represent the appropriate durations.
