If you look to the vid then you see the bassist is playing close to the nut (As I see
So he plays in Standard I think)
But because there`s also a synth part so you have to detune the E to a C and the A to a
If you`re only gonna play the bass part then send me a message. I`ll send you the one in Standard.
But I put above the tab wich notes, so you can figure it out by yourself
Legend:
/ = slide
Intro (the countdown, just did it for fun):
G |---------------------| D |-6--6--6--6--6--6--6-| G#|---------------------| C |---------------------|
The real song:
Intro, as well as main riff
[C] [C] [Bb] [B] [C] [C] [Bb] [B]
G |----------------------| D |----------------------| G#|-4--4--2-3-4--4--2-3--| D#|----------------------| Repeated a lot.
In the intro the bass plays the main riff three times.
Then the synth plays:
[C5]
G |-----(5)--| D |------5~~-| G#|------4~~-| C |----------|
‘Verse’ 1
Bass: main riff
Synth:
G |([C5]5)~~~-|
D |-5~~~~-|
G#|-4~~~~-|
C |-------|
When he sings ‘A great occassion’ (Or something like it)
The bass plays a riff that returns often:
[C] [C] [Bb] [B] [D#] [C#]
G |-------------------------| D |-------------------------| G#|-4--4--2-3/7-7-7-7-5-5-5-| C |-------------------------|
So that goes on, the drum changes and the synth plays the chord as in the intro, or as
‘verse’.

Then the chorus 1:24

Synth riff goes on untill the end of the song
The bass comes in after some vocals lines and plays the chorus untill the end.
