Tic Bass

For this song, a 4-string bass in drop-D tuning is required. Not the hardest song to play but the chorus is a bit tricky, which is probably due to Helmet's use of odd time signatures. Through some trial and error I was able to tab this song by ear. If there are any mistakes please let me know in the comments.Esta informação foi útil?

[Outro] (2:27 to 3:40)
 
        (You can play the outro in one of two ways. You can just pluck/strum open notes
         on the low D-string to wrap up the song or you can improvise here a bit. On the
         record it sounds like Henry Bogdan improvises a bit. Either way is acceptable.
         The outro feels like Free Time, hence why you can improvise the outro.
         I'll tab out both ways below.)

Thanks a lot!! I didn't think I would ever get a comment on this tab or my others. Yeah, the chorus was really tricky for me at first, I had to play through the song many, many times -- and I had to work it all out by ear. Oh and I've seen your tabs for some Helmet songs and you did a great job on your tab. I learned how to play Biscuits for Smut with your tab! Thanks again for the comment

Phenomenal tab, I've been waiting for someone to get the chorus right for almost 4 years now. I've tabbed out a lot of their music for bass but never got around to Tic.
