Grand 'ol Bass Tab list

Topics about musical instruments other than guitar should go here. There's bound to be a Carter, LeRoi, or Yo-Yo Ma out there.

DREAMING TREE

Played on a 5-string.  Can be played on a 4-string tuned to drop D.

Main Riff:

G---------14----------------------14------------------- 
D--0----------0------14-----15----------0-----14------- 
A----------------15------0-----------------0------0---- 
E------------------------------------------------------


The instrumental interlude after the verse:

G---------2----------------------------------
D--0---------0-----2------------3--------5---
A---------------3-----0--1---------0--3-----0
E-------------------------------------------- (7 times)

Then the last time through,

G---------2-------------------------------------
D--0---------0-----2------------3--------5------
A---------------3-----0--1---------0--3-----3--0------>into chorus
E-----------------------------------------------

The chorus and lead in to the verses:

G-------------------------------
D-------------------------------
A-------------------------------
E--5------3------1--------------
B-----------------------3-------

G---------------------------------
D---------------------------------
A-----------------------2----/3---
E--5------3----------------------5---------
B----------------3----------------

Since the main riff and the interlude riff use only the top three strings, you can play the song on a 4-string tuned to drop D and then you can achieve the low D in the chorus.

The improv parts: 
This was incredibly hard to tab due to the fact that it never sounds the same if you play it over and over.

Formatted. :)

Only thing that doesn't seem right at all on this tab is the 'chorus' section...I guess that's what it's called (right after 'This is the last stop!')...rest seems good enough to work from. That's how I learned the song...found this tab somewheres online, heh.

Hey guys - I haven't been around in a while, nor have I plugged any of my basses in for months.. but uh, what have I missed? I think we have some new songs that could be put up, eh? Maybe Cornbread and some others. :D
