Song

Song:Surrender

By:Dave Koz

Album:???

Tabber:T4-TURBO

this guy has a 6-string bass and has a really hi string but you only

use it in 1 of the slides and if you just have a 5 string thats ok

be cause the regular 1st string will do.also since its tabbed for a 6

it screws the strings up so just remember that the 6th is really the 5

and the 5 is really the 4th etc.

Main riff:

1:--------------------------------------------------------|
2:--------------------------------------------------------|
3:--------------------------------------------------------|
4:--------------------------------------------------------|
5:6-8--8-11-8--8-6-8--8-11-8-6--2-4--4-7-4--4-2-4--4-7-4-2|
6:--------------------------------------------------------|

just keep doing this for most of the song.

1st pause:

1:-----|
2:-----|
3:-----|
4:-----|

5:15\\\|

6:-----|this is after a long pause and sax solo

2nd pause:for a couple of riffs play this then its your choice if you

want to play what the over-dub is playing or you can keep playing this.

this part is played with synth (or what i do is just pluck the string

just the 20th fret and it kinda gives it that sound)

1:---------------|
2:---------------|
3:---------------|
4:----3-5-6------|
5:x-2-------5-6-7|
6:---------------|

here's what the over-dub is playing:---slap the x's and pluck the 2////.

this slide-up go's reeeeeeeaaaaallllyyy high this is were that 1st

higher comes in but like i said B-4 the regular 1st string still sounds

ok.

1:----x-x-2/////|
2:x-x-----------|
3:x-------------|
4:--------------|
5:--------------|
6:--------------|

3rd pause:

slap... fingers..

1:---------|------|
2:---------|------|
3:x--------|------|

4:--x-5////|15\\\\|

5:---------|------|
6:---------|------|

end:

1:----------------------------------------|
2:----------------------------------------|
3:----------------------------------------|
4:----------------------------------------|
5:8---\\\\1////4---7-----4h5---2h3--------|
6:-------------------2--------------2-----|

thats it just try 2 remember that the strings are messed up because

its a tab for a 6-string-bass and you will b ok.
