Song: De Anza Jig Artist: Primus Album: Tales From the Punchbowl (great CD!!) Tabbed By: Mike Bottiggi Email: mbottiggi@hotmail.com The old tab for this song (by Nathan Welton) was partially right, but the verse wasn't included, and a few notes were missing. This is my intepretation of the song, I think it is pretty close to 100% accurate. I have only been playing Bass for about half a year, so I could be off. There are different ways you can play it, but this is how I do it, and it sounds decent. The parenthesis indicates variations that may (or may not) be played. G |-----------------------------------------------------| D |-----------------------------------------------------| A |--(2)3-----3--(x)3-----3--(0h3-----3--(0)3-----3-----| E |--------3-----3-----3-----3-----3-----3-----3-----3--| It's easiest to use 3 fingers on this part, I'm willing to bet that Les does too.

They are usually before he hits the C note (3 on A). Here is the outro, in which he does a slight variation: (variations are in parentheses) (Les yeehaa's) G |------------9999-7-----------9-7----------------------| D |---------10--------10---(10)-----10-10-7-5-7-7--------| A |----7-10--------------10-----------------------7-5----| E |-78------------------------------------------------8--| Outro x2 G |---------------9-7--------------------| D |----------(10)-----10-10-7-5-7--------| A |-3-----3-----------------------7-5----| E |----3------------------------------8--| This one is played on a banjo bass, but of course it sounds fine on an electric. It should be real easy to piece the parts of the song together if you want to play it all the way through. It's also a good song for practicing vocals while playing, especially if you haven't been playing long (like me).
