There wasn't a tab for this anywhere, so I decided to write one cause this song is 
a "Must Know" for all bass players!


This song is one of my favorites and is super fun to play.  The Friendly Fires 
never leave me disappointed when it comes to bass lines.

Enjoy!

P.S.
If you don't have the deluxe version of the Friendly Fires album, GET IT!! It's 
amazing!!
