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

Elvis Is Dead

Bass

V = vibrato

Intro 1. 2.

G|---------------|---------|-----------|
D|---------------|---------|-----------|
A|---------------|-------5-|-------6-5-|
E|--7-6-5--7-6-5-|-7-6-5---|-7-6-5-----|

V

Slap Part 2. 3.

G|------------|--------------|-------------|
D|------------|-------8---6--|-------6-----|
A|------------|-----4--------|-----4-------|
E|-1-1--4-5-6-|-4h6-----6----|-4h6-----4-6-|

Note:The part between the first and second slap part is hard to

hear because the bass volume is turned low. I play

     E|-0-x-x-0-x-x-0-0-0-x-x-0-x| or something close to that. If

you have any comments or questions email me at redweasel56@usa.net
