Phish - David Bowie Bass

a great bassline from mike off a great album.
the rythm isnt that hard to pick up if your listening to the song.

S=slap
P=pop
X=muted slap

Main Line:

            P       P     P         P      P   P
G   --------4h6-----2-----4--------4h6-----2---4--|
D   ----------------------------------------------|
A   --2/4-4-----------0h2------2/4-4-----------X--|
E   ------------3h5--------------------3h5--------|

      S   S     S     S      S   S     S     S

This is played four times before the walk-up part.  I add

the muted slap for a little variety, but you could keep

repeating the first half of the pattern if you want to.

Walk-Up:

G   ----------------6h7h9--|
D   --------------7--------|
A   ----4h5h7--------------|
E   --5--------------------|

After the walk-up is played, the whole thing is repeated and

the second time around it goes into a jam.  After the jam is

over, it comes back to the original pattern, except

everything moves up 3 frets (including the walk-up).

So it would look like this.

Main Line Varation:

            P       P     P         P      P   P
G   --------7h9-----5-----7--------7h9-----5---3---|
D   -----------------------------------------------|
A   --5/7-7------------------5/7-7-----------X-----|
E   ------------6h8---8h10--------------6h8--------|

      S   S     S     S      S   S     S     S

Walk-Up Varation:

G   -----------------9h10h12--|
D   --------------10----------|
A   ----7h8h10----------------|
E   --8-----------------------|

so it was readable and add some parts to it. so if you have any questions you can ask him.
