Ska Wars Bass Tab. Music by Capdown.
Tabbed by Wee Mad Arthur (weemadarthur_wma@hotmail.com)
Tab is in standard tuning, but probly should be tuned up a step.  I didnt bother cos open strings are just annoying.
The bar length should be twice what i have written (written in 2 time - should b 4 or 8 time), but that doesnt matter
for just playing it.  Neway im sure ur all used to working out the rythym from the music seeing as most tabs dont
bother with rythym.
Oh this is my first tab btw, so dont send me hate mail if u can resist.


Intro riff - last 3 notes of first bar and last 5 notes of second bar are semiquavers; first notes of bars start on first beat

G------------|----------------|
D----------6-|----------4-----|
A------4-6---|------4-6---6-4-|
E--4---------|--6-------------|

Main riff - all notes of first bar and 2nd two notes of 2nd bar are quavers, rest of notes in 2nd bar are semiquavers.

G-------------|----------------|
D-----------6-|----------4-----|
A-----4--6----|-----4--6---6-4-|
E--4----------|--6-------------|

Chorus riff - a 4-- means a 4th fret note played for 1 quaver length.  Each bar begins with -- and ends with -, so a bar starting with ---- has a quaver rest at the beginning.

G--------------|--------------|----------------|--------------|
D--------------|--------------|----------------|--------------|
A--4--4--4-2---|--5--5--5--5--|----------------|--------------|
E--------------|--------------|--7--7--7-6-5-4-|--4--4--4--4--|

End of chorus uses chorus riff with last 2 bars like this:

G-------------|-------------|
D-------------|-------------|
A--6--6--6--6-|--6--6--6--6-|
E-------------|-------------|

Ska riff - play the main riff once, then this (u might want to check the notes r right on this bit, wasnt quite sure meself, but the rythym is correct):

G---------------|--------------|----------------|-------------|
D---------8-----|--------8-----|-------8--6-----|----6--5--6--| let last note ring for 2 more bars
A---------------|--------------|----------------|-------------|
E--6--6-6----6--|----6-6----6--|----6--------6--|-------------|

Punk riff - all notes quavers:

G-------------|-------------|------------|-------------|
D-------------|-------------|------------|-------------|
A--7--7--7--7-|-------------|------------|-------------|
E-------------|--7--7--7--7-|--4--4--4--4|--4--4--2--3-|


Order of riffs:

2 bars percussive intro with 2nd bar like this:

G---------------------------------|
D---------------------------------|
A---------------------------------|
E---------------------------2--3--|

The 2--3 are quavers played at the end of the bar, rest of bar is just percussion.

Intro riff x 7

Then next 2 bars, my standard notation for rythym:

G--------------|--------------|
D--------------|--------------|
A--------------|--------------|
E--2--2--2--2--|--3--3--3--3--|

Main riff x 3

2--3 (as in 2nd bar of song)

Main riff x 7

E--2--2--2--2--|--3--3--3--3--|

Chorus riff x 4

End is different from ending above; last 2 bars are:

G--------------|--------------|
D--------------|--------------|
A--4-4---4-4---|--4-4---------|
E--------------|--------2--3--|

Main riff x 3

2--3 as 2nd bar

Main riff x 7

E--2--2--2--2--|--3--3--3--3--|

Chorus riff x 4 (normal ending)

Punk riff x 4

Ska riff (should be 8 bars for each time played) x 4 (note last 2 times should be played using the intro riff instead of the main riff)

Chorus riff x 4

Punk riff x 4

Intro riff x 8

Main riff x 7

Final 3 bars:

E--4--4--4--4--|--4--4--2--3--|--4-| let last note ring or slide to nothingness, whichever u like.

Well i think thats it, let me know if theres nething needs changing.
U might wanna try some funkier sounding rythyms on the all quaver bars, i couldnt quite tell exactly what was played in some of them.
