Show Me The Way Bass

(ver. 3)
Peter Frampton
A classic Bass line from a classic song ...


Tuning: EADG

Time signature: 2/4

r = rest (listen for duration)
/ = slide (low to high)
()= note inside parenthesis not plucked or hammered on
{}= note inside pointed parenthesis still ringing from previous measure
||= 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.
