Song

Artist: The Atomic Bitchwax

Song: Stork Theme

Album: The Atomic Bitchwax

Bassist: Chris Kosnik

Tabbed by: LedZeplica

Here's the little lead in

G|-----------------
D|-----------------
A|---5--5--5----
E|----------------

The next two bars make up the main riff

G|------7--5------------------------------------------
D|---0--------7--6--5--3--0--3---0--3---0--3---
A|-----------------------------------------------------
E|-----------------------------------------------------
G|------7--5-------------------------------------------
D|---0--------7--6--5--3^5^0--3---0--3---0--3--
A|------------------------------------------------------
E|------------------------------------------------------

Repeat both of these bars twice

Then play this change...

G|----------------------------------------------------
D|----------------------------------------------------
A|--5--5--5-----------------------5--5--5--------
E|---------------------------------------------------

Play the main riff again.

Then the change.

Then the main riff.

Then play...

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

Then play the main riff.

Then there's a little bass groove solo in E minor. Since Atomic Bitchwax are

a jam band themselves, it's better to just jam and improvise this part

instead of trying to play exactly what he's playing.

Then repeat the whole song basically, you can figure out the changes.

The very end goes like this...

G|--------------------------------------------------------------------
D|----------------3----------------------------------3~-------------
A|---5----3--0-----5--3--0--5---3--0--------3-----------5-----
E|------------------------------------------3--1---------------------
