Shine On Me Bass

(ver. 1)
Kingston Wall
Kingston Wall was a psychadelic trio rock band from Finland. They were around in the 
90's and released three or more (I'm not sure) albums. Those weren't however released 
Finland I believe. Which is a shame because I think they're really good.
This song is from their second album, the bass is played by Jukka Jylli, great bass work throughout
the whole album.

Tuning is EADG, timing is not really respected, more like a hint.
Some small fills are left out as they don't matter as much and differ from time to time.

Correction: Oops, seems my bass wasn't in standard tuning when I tabbed this...
The song should be played 1 1/2 step down in pitch. E.g. start on C# instead of E.

Bridge and B are now played lots of times until the end with small variations
and fills here and there which I'm too lazy and not good enough to transcribe :)
At 3:10 and 4:50 a fill is played that goes something like:

-/9-9-9-7-9-9-9-7-9-7-------|
----------------------9-7---|
--------------------------7-|
----------------------------|

At 5:30, the song finish off with:

----12-11-9----------------------------|

----9--7--5--------------------------------------8-7--5------|
-7-----------5-7----7--5-7-7--5-7p5----5-----------------5-7-|

Play pattern A, and after that:

--------------------------------------------------------9-|
