Be Thankful For What You've Got bass

Be Thankful For What You've Got

A great cover of the William Devaughn tune,
The Massive Attack bassline has been simplified
compared to the original track which has a lot of improvisation in it.
I recommended you check that version out if you haven't heard it already!

                                                     "Though you may not..."

The bass pauses at 0:19's and you hear the first lyric,
The bassline resumes at 0:21's and you basically repeat the riff throughout
remainder of the song.

Main Riff (pretty much the same)
