Please Excuse This Funk Up

Infectious Grooves
Bass Tab
★4.6(4)

This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Song

This is one of my first tabs but its pretty acurate, however he improvises alot

through the main riff. Also theres a hell of a lot of mutin through the song and

it just adds to the funk but u acn miss them out and still get the tune...

intro:

g|--3h5-0---|---xxxx--3/10-3/10--|

Main riff:

g|----0-5-6h7------------------------|
d|-------------0-3h5-----------------|
a|--------------------1--------1-1---|
e|--3--------------------3-1-3-----0-|

Verse:

g|-------------------------------------|-----------------------------3-----|
d|------------------------3h5-5-3h5h3--|-------------------------3h5---5-3-|
a|-----------------x-1/3-------------3-|-----------------xxx-1-3-----------|
e|--3-x-x-x-1-1-3----------------------|--3-x-x-x-1-1-3--------------------|

Mess round with these riffs improvise round them. Theres to many variations to tab.
