Swing On This

(Bass - 3 versions)

 1º Versão

Great walking jazz bassline by bassist Mike Inez. Kinda has a little
bit of a swing feel to it. Not of what time signature this is in.

    Another of Mike Inez's great basslines off of Jar of Flies, you can
    play this one quite easily on a 4-string, though he may use a
    5-string for it, I don't think he uses the B string at all, except
    maybe in the chorus, where the bassline changes.  I haven't
    tabbed the chorus, if you know it, let me know.

I think this song is plaied by Mike with a 5-strings bass....now I've got
my version,4-string bass:

BASS:
    (B7)
||------------------|----------------|------2----------|--------------------
||--4-2-------------|----------------|-4-2-4-----------|--------------------
||-----3-2----------|---2-3-2--------|--------3-2------|--2-2^(3)------------
||--------5-2-0-1-2-|-/5-----5-0-1-(2)----------5-0-1-2|/5------5p^2-0-1-(2)-

This part cotinue for all verse part.
The guitar plays the B7 chord,at time.....listen it on CD.
The Chorus is:


||------------------------
||------------------------
||----3-3^(4)-------------
||--3---------------------
||------------------------
||------------------------

The solo is a complete G pentatonic blues solo, so enjoy to do it yourself!!!!
