WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Nickelback - Saturday Nights Alright For Fighting Bass | Ver. 2
I'm not a big fan of Nickelback but here it is.
Tuning: EADG **
**(This song is normally played on a 5-string bass and contains
notes that are unable to be played on a 4-string bass. This transcription
is for a 4-string bass so there are notes that will be an octave higher
than what is actually in the song)
Time signature: 16/8
r = rest (listen for duration)
/ = slide (low to high)
\ = slide (high to low)
()= note inside parenthesis not plucked or hammered on
||= measure gets repeated (see number of times above measure, e.g. 4x)
*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.
