Built This City - Jefferson Starship
I'm pretty sure that the bass for this song is actually a half step down so it
might not sound 100% with the recording but it sounds very accurate.

I'm pretty sure you just play F the entire time on bass. It
should be in time with the bass drum. Sounds good but kinda boring to play.

^^^
This last note should really be Eb, but in
standard tuning, I just hold out the E a little longer. If you wanted to,
I guess you could play Eb 6th fret of A string but it's a really quick note that's
difficult to notice anyway.

For that little solo bit play Bb and play F when exiting the bridge.
Those are all the parts. Just figure out the timings.
