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

Played on a stand-up electric bass, and sometimes an acoustic stand

up. I play It on an acoustic frettless bass guitar, and it sounds perfect.

|-7-6-5-4-3-|*------4-------*|
|-----------|*-6-/6---234---*|

Chorus:

|----------------------|
