Jamiroquai - Space Cowboy Bass

This is the tab that works really good for me

Info:
  - This is one of the best bass lines by Jamiroquai. This may not 
be obvious on the first
    or second listen, but if you really concentrate on the bass you 
realize it is a true
    masterpiece. This here is a long-requested 'Play as you see' 
tab for Space Cowboy, the
    album version. You will NOT find any "I leave the fills to you" 
or "Improvise yourself
    from here on". I precisely tabbed all the notes and all the fast 
runs towards the end.
    Of course, you can still improvise, but if you wanted to have 
it exactly as it was played,
    then I hope you will enjoy this.
 
  - As I always say for these longer tabs: They do have a lot of text 
that might seem complicated
    and useless. But I strongly advise you to read it. When you're 
done, you can just delete the 
    whole text and make the tab much shorter and eye-friendlier! 
It took me many hours to write 
    this tab and I don't want you to give it a quick look and say "Ah 
I already see a mistake", 
    "WTF is that" and so on. Because there are some moments where 
you could do exactly that, I tried 
    to explain what to pay attention to in these very lines. So let 
us get to the tab.

  - I need feedback on this one, so if anyone tries to play this, 
let me know what you think!
    
Playing Guide: 
  - Timing: Problem - There are so many notes played fast in some 
bars that sometimes I could not 
    graphically represent the timing as well as I wanted. Solution 
- I added some help for counting 
    (*1  2  3  4*). The notes written below each time unit are played 
exactly that moment and this
    should help you find yourself in rhythm again. Please delete 
the help when you don't need it
    anymore or if the tab looks too messy because of it!
  - Fast runs: They are actually very accurate, so if you're having 
problems with them, try to play 
    them very slow and listen to the specific parts of the record 
a few times you will get used to 
    it eventually.
    
  - Bridge: After a short pause, just before returning to Verse, 
play a slide on E string: E-|-11\-|
  - Chorus: You can omit the 4-5 in the 4-5-6 sequence often played 
in 2ND chorus. I think they're
    played, but it could also be some dead notes. You can definitely 
hear something that is not synth!
  - Fade-out: It is correct to the end, play it real loud to hear 
everything.
